What bike(s) remind me of you.

Ashe: Aprilia Tuono 1000 R. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Aprilia-Tuono1000R.htm I could totally see Ashe riding on this quirky thing. I mean, why not? Ashe is a studly man, I could see him mounted on the height of Italian engineering and design. The odd and yet beautiful look of it, coupled with the irony of Ashe being on something that's meant to go so fast, (when he is a man who is typically in no hurry) would seem right at home in my eyes. Ciao!

Or perhaps . . .

Piaggio MP3 500. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Piaggio-MP3500.htm It must be the general quirkiness of the Italians, but I can see Ashe sporting this too. Why have 2 wheels when you can have 3? I just think he'd look right on it.

----------

Alexandre: BMW K1300R. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-BMW-K1300R.htm BMW? Das ist good, jah!

----------

Busby: Indian Chief Vintage. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Indian-ChiefVintage.htm I don't know why, and maybe you feel the same way, but I think of Robert every time I see one of these.

----------

Charlie: Yamaha VMax VMX17. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Yamaha-VMaxVMX17.htm Charlie has expressed many times his love for fast, aggressive cars. So when I see muscle cars, I think of Charlie. In turn, when I see bikes like the Yamaha VMX17, I think of him. It's fast and it's aggressive, the perfect bike for him.

Or perhaps . . .

Buell Lightning XB12Scg http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Buell-Lightning-XB12Scg.htm Pretty much in the same vein as the Yamaha VMX17, this is a "street fighter" semi "naked" bike. It's aggressive, quirky looking, and very fast. The photos don't do it justice actually, when you see these in person, you realize that they have a "bulldog" kind of mass to them. They look potent.

----------

Cross: Royal Enfield Bullet 500 Classic. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-RoyalEnfield-Bullet500Classic.htm This is the perfect bike for a man that has a technology killing mutant power. It's bare bones, single cylinder, minimal, effecient, and regal in all it's classiness. The bike screams, "Let me do my job as a bike and nothing else."

----------

Dan: Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 Custom XL1200c. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Harley-Davidson-Sportster1200CustomXL1200C.htm It's probably because the bike I've seen Dan ride the most is his Sportster 883. The Sportster, be it 1200 or 883, is very befitting to him. I've seen him ride this frame before, and there's a very natural look to it.

Or perhaps . . .

Harley-Davidson FLHRC Road King Classic. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Harley-Davidson-Touring-FLHRCRoadKingClassic.htm I once heard Dan say he wants a Road King, and he didn't specify whether he wants the Classic or not, but upon looking at the Road King Classic, something about it screamed "Dan". I think it's somewhere between the "I have heritage" look and the shear grace of such a hulking machine.

----------

Erin: Vespa LX50. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Vespa-LX50.htm Because Erin is HARDCORE . . . like a soccer mom.

Or perhaps . . .

Triumph Bonneville T100 50th Anniversary Addition. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Triumph-BonnevilleT100-50thAnniversary.htm I don't know why, but I just think Erin would look really cute on this.

----------

James: Harley-Davidson VRSDX Night Rod Special. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Harley-Davidson-VRSC-VRSCDXNightRodSpecial.htm I don't know if it's the black and red color scheme (which I always associate with James for some reason) or the fact that it's unusual for a Harley, but I could see James stepping off this bike and punching some old lady, upon getting to his destination.

----------

Jayson: Harley-Davidson XR1200. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Harley-Davidson-XR1200.htm Dude what a bitchin' bike! This thing has a wonderful fusion of the classic dirt track racer look mixed with a modernized look. It's a rad bike that looks like it can really go high in the MPH area. Everything about it makes me think of my brother.

Or perhaps . . .

Honda CBR600RR. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Honda-CBR600RR.htm It's probably because this is the bike he has talked about wanting, and thus I just associate with him by proxy. However, whenever I see one, I do think of him. So, there ya go.

----------

Meador: Yamaha Road Star Warrior. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Yamaha-RoadStarWarrior.htm It might be because long ago we were looking at motorcycles on the internet, and Meador came across an ebay auction for one of these. We both expressed interest in it, commenting on how good a bike it looked to be. Since then, I've associated these with Meador, but I don't think it's just that one incident. The aggressive blending of sport with cruiser seems to remark on Meador's general appeal. It's what I think, at least.

----------

Mike: Ducati Sport 1000S. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Ducati-Sport1000S.htm You wouldn't understand . . . it's an Italian thing.

----------

Mom: Honda Fury. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2010models/2010-Honda-Fury.htm What? I could totally see it happening.

----------

Rachel: Ural Retro. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Ural-Retro.htm Imagine this: Rachel rolling down the street on this, wearing a vintage Russian military coat with Missy in the side car wearing Doggles and a leather aviation cap.

Or perhaps . . .

Victory Vegas Low. http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2009models/2009-Victory-VegasLow.htm The Mrs. likes classic looking bikes, but I think a mixture of classic with sleek modern designs would be a wonderful compliment to the female form.

----------

Scab: Travertson V-Rex. http://www.travertson.com/ If I were a Transformer, this would be my vehicle mode.
