KTM RC8 *Drooools* - saw it in yorkville

Husqvarna SMS630 - on the way up to Fenelon falls

Moto Guzzi Griso 1100 - Vaughan (piazza del sole ferrari meet)

Those were some rare sexy bikes, and I'm wondering where they bought them. I'm always looking for something unique and rare.

Have one of those stored ( 2008 ) - joint ownership with my brother-in-law (purchased 2nd hand from dealer in Guelph). Gotta admit, it draws a lot of stares when its ridden (*sniff*, my poor Gixxer).

I hate the front/nose of RC8, it reminds me of an elephant, for some reason.

Husqvarna

Couldn't find a current Moto Guzzi dealer network in Canada. Wonder if they pulled out.

Two Wheel Motorsport in Guelph sells Moto Guzzi and they always have a couple grisos in there. They also deal Aprilia now.

I fell in love with the aura given off by this bike at the December show.....an ultimate show of style (esp. in the green/tan), even though not generally my type of bike.

I saw a fully orange (I think it was orange, don't remember anymore) Laverda in mint condition up north over the summer. It was for sale. Not sure how rare they are here though I imagine you can't buy them from dealers here. The owner said he imported it from the UK when he moved here... ah here's one, picture this except all orange: http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/Gallery/Laverda 750S Formila 98 3.jpg

Harley Davidson FLH Knucklehead - motorcycle show/meet up north

Mine's in a little better shape than this one; except for the taillight.

My first bike. It was made in Delhi, Ontario, Canada in the early 70's.

I have a really great neighbor and his friends who love to rebuild things.

Equally as rare, and sound unbelievable. My mates brother used to have one.

A couple of years ago I met a Yank riding through Elora on his Vincent. We chatted a bit and it turns out he has several.

rinomato1, how unique, how rare?
A 1987 Ducati 650 Indiana may not seem to fit. However, seeing as there were only a couple in Canada and this one was traded even for a new 796 Monster I think it fits.

And how about the private collection that it came from? Bimotas, Ducatis, Cagivas and even some rare Japanese models including 0W01’s and a Kawi 750R. Oh, did I mention that over a dozen of ém are still in their crates?

This 1926 Excelsior Henderson is a daily runner, I see him a lot in the Hanover/Durham area.

Back in November, Me and my GF got to visit California, and one of the places I got to go see was Slovang California. They had an awesome motorcycle museum. Able to take alot of pictures ranging bikes from 1800s - 2000s. Really an awesome place to visit if you ever go to california

heres 2 of the 100 different bikes ives seen. I got more bike pictures but there in my GF's DSLR

 

[jondevos]

Not a bike but I seen a Mclaren F1 the other day. Couldnt believe it but he waved to me as I drooled beside him on my cbr. I have never seen a car even close to that around here. I dont believe it was a kit car either. He was not hard on the gas but it still sounded awesome. Just dont know why the old guy would have a car like that out with roads the way they are right now. Hell I wouldnt drive a car like that in Trenton at all with the roads. Id park at the 401 and walk in.
