I've never owned a water called 4T, nor a bike with fuel injection.

One I'd like to rectify is not owning a bike with multiple cranks, designed rather than snapped for preference.

[formula400]

an auto blipper

still don't really understand what they do

[the_priest]

I'm working my way through the options.
VTwin
Boxer
Italian
Nothing over 1200
No 6 cylinder bikes (yet)

I'm most like to tick VTwin or Boxer next. SDR or Guzzi Sports V1200.

Blip. Automatically. Duh!

Do you manually blip? If not this is probably the wrong thread to be explaining it

[JackyJoll]

Bar-end tassles.

You'll be on to the clutchless shifting after that!

Nor any other vehicle as a matter of fact

Never had a Brit bike or a Yank one, never had German or Austrian. Never had traction control or a quick shifter. Never had a parallel twin or V4. Other than that I'm struggling.

2 and 4 stroke - tick.
Faired/unfaired - tick.
Air-cooled/liquid cooled - tick.
