What bikes have you bought twice?

[Mscb1100_imp]

3 1983 Goldwing standards (no fairing)
2 1979 C X 500’s
Wish I still had one of each, the CB1100 is similar but better alternative to the unfaired early GW

Two VFR's, bought a 94' in 94'. Sold it in 04'. Bought a 97' in 17' to play with. Don't like it as much as I like the 13' CB1100 but it does bring back some good memories.

Bored at home so reviving an old thread....
Bikes I've bought twice or more:
Yamaha R6... 2000, 2003, 2004
Yamaha FJR1300... 2006 and now my 2016.

I've flipped a bunch of bike and have bought many Ninja 300's, CBR's and other sportbikes that sell well. The FJR is my keeper for life. Sold my '06 with 60k miles on it and my '16 is a baby with only 12k miles so far.

2- Honda VF750 Magna 1994-2003 In my opinion, still dollar for dollar, and pound for pound the best lightweight cruiser. Comfortable, fast, and handled well.

3- Honda Valkyrie 1500 1996-2003 Smooth, comfortable, and bulletproof engine. Cruiser of the decade in the 90's.

MTC's purchase of his second CB1100 piqued my curiosity. Have you owned the same model motorcycle on two different occasions?

I have, five times:

2 K75's
2 SV650's
2 F800ST's
2 V7 Classic's
2 CB750's (both SOHC but 8 model years apart)

Anyone else?

Ya,
3 x CB1100:
2013 c/ABS- sold
2014 STD and DLX - still in my possession :excited:

P.S. Do you want to see pics of the above?

I've always been partial to the Honda Magnas, especially the early-mid '80s models and the V65 class. Yummy.

This here is my 2010 Husaberg FE390, a 400cc thumper that's fuel injected, with the engine rotated 70 deg. off vertical to lay more horizontal, 6 speed wide ratio trans, and w/ 2.2 gals of fuel, it weighs 253 lbs wet and gets 55-75 mpg,. I bought it in 2012, and currently has 9k mostly offroad miles on it.

Having owned and ridden this bike HARD for a decade now through some of the most remote and difficult tracks out west, and seeing 1st hand how incredibly reliable and solid this bike is, I found and bought its big brother , this 2011 FE570s, a 570cc thumper weighing 255 lbs. wet, w/ same 6 speed wide ratio trans and FI. It currently has 1500 50/50 dual sport miles on it.

This 2011 570s is factory 50 states legal, so it's got a legal road bike VIN number, and in CA... this bike is highly sought after.

2- BMW K75 Bulletproof ,water cooled, unique and good ones can be had for 3k

2- BMW F650GS Twin Water cooled like K75, Comfortable, reliable. May be the best bike for the guy who only has one bike. Still have the second one.

Well for my sins I had two Moto Guzzis, a 79 V50 Mk2 (bloody fantastic)..crashed that and decided to order a brand new 81 Monza V50 Mk3 (worst POS I ever had the displeasure of owning).

And more recently two FJR 13's both auto clutch models (I loved 'em)
Back then the Chief Finance Officer and I did more miles per year in Continental Europe than here in the UK

Stay safe folks!

The V50 Monza looks kinda nice.

Looks matter, eh?

Looked great I'll agree, but the motor and tranny were made from cheese!!
The thing just would not stay together long enough to enjoy it..I wonder how it ever got me to Munich and back!
I must have been so naive back then..no plan ..no spares, no breakdown ins and NO idea

This was my 2nd Valkyrie and my favorite. Pic was taken at the Bristol Motor Speedway Dragstrip.

You actually had two (x2!) Strom 650s?

They are generally regarded as "bulletproof". Why would one need the second iteration? Accident? Stolen?
