The Best Looking Bike Ever?

[Le_Fromage_Grande]

My neck is as wide as my head, and my head is large.
I like the looks of the race CB750/900/1100 a lot.

The Eddie Lawson Kawasaki is a close contender too.

you had permanently dirty hands and smelled of a combination of Brut33 and petrol

The Eddie Lawson Kawasaki is a close contender too.

I've got one of those, I think the Honda is better looking and a nicer bike to ride, but I wasn't brave enough to buy one, they have a reputation for being fragile and engine parts are difficult to get, the Kawasaki engine was made until the late 90s and parts are common and cheap.

Out of the GS1000, Z1000 and CB900, the Honda was nicest to ride, the Kawasaki the most reliable and the Suzuki handles better than the Kawasaki and is more reliable than the Honda, but don't rush out and buy a GS1000 (or GSX1100), the gearboxes on them are wearing out and are very hard to find in useable condition, it's easier to make the Kawasaki handle as good as the Suzuki by bracing the frame and fitting a stronger swingarm.

The 350LC has to be in there as a contender:

I loved and cherished mine

How many times do you have to post the same picture of your crashed LC? We get it, you raced, and crashed

Oh dear. How sad. Never mind.

You know lots about me. I know fuck all about you.

Run along and play nicely

I only know lots about you because you insist on boring us to death about how great you were. Narcissistic is one word to describe you, but I can think of plenty others.

I didn't realise you were a member till just now. You should try to post interesting stuff

As I'm fairly new around here I thought I'd follow the example of the types of interesting topics that the current members post. Unfortunately I picked you as my guide......

I googled what the best looking motorcycle is of all time and the Ducati 916 frequently gets a mention.

I used to ride my mate's 916,take it out for a run every few weeks to keep things moving,it seemed to be a bit of a head turner & I knew I was on a bike with lots of kudos,but to most of my friends disdain I prefered riding my FZ750.I think the 916's a iconic bike but I prefer the look of the 888 & for me,the TT2 bikes were the best looking Ducati's.Those steel trellis Taglioni frame's look so 'Right'

Top 5 contender...

Top 5 contender...

The single sided swingarm Panigale’s trump it.

I don't like the look of single side swing arm's,prefer double sides myself.

[MingtheMerciless]

ZX7R, P1, in green and purple.

[G.P]

this in the flesh at Birmingham was very very lovely. I love the 888 Ducati and the panigale though. Throw a classic Bonnie in their too

[wull]

You’re close, but not quite close enough, it’s “Desmosedici”…….a friend of mine has one and it’s epic, he also has a few Superleggera’s from over the years, they are also a contender for best looking bike.

[Whysub]

I have considered that faired bikes can cover up a multitude of ugliness. Not all, just some.

This thread shows that different people like different bikes, it's like asking what's the best sandwich.

[Dodgy69]

Cheese and onion.
