I'm going to hate to write all this out, but here's the whole crew of things with wheels:
Cages: 2001 Dodge Durango (Up for sale) 2002 Dodge Dakota (Inherited it, and going up for sale after I swap out the rusted shackles) 2002 Ford Excursion (The family truckster) 2016 Ford Fiesta (My commuter, really wish I had had the credit for an ST) When the two Dodges sell, well be buying a smaller more fuel efficent vehicle for my wife to use to take my son to his various therepy sessions and doctors appointments for his developmental issues. Trailers: 2001 Coleman Utah (With 3 kids, I can take a lot more vacations in a pop up than in a hotel) 2014 Harbor Freight 4x8 utility trailer Biles: 1981 Suzuki GN400 (Selling that in the very near future) 2015 Bashan Blaze 250 2016 Coolster QG-210 2016 Tao Tao Lancer 150 If you want to add the vehicles that I take care of maintence for you can add: 2005 Kia Sedona 2008 Scion Xd 2008 Subaru Forester and a 2008 Dodge Caliber It seems like I'm always cleaning, waxing or wrenching on something! |

Some of you guys have ranches and stables. I only have a small fence for the 1980 Kawasaki KX125 and 2016 RPS Hawk 250 and I call them my little ponies because they don't have enough power to be called a horse.
They can still fold you if don't know how to ride or don't pay attention when you are doing it.

I can't get to my pics right at the moment. From the most recent purchase back. I have owned other bikes. This is just what I have kept around.
This is my current line up. 2014 Honda CB500X- I bought it new and farkled out. 2000 Yamaha V Star 650 Classic- Purchased for a song and no dance, in all original condition, from a meth head, in bad running condition. I did all the maintenance, made some adjustments, and installed some niceties. 2004 Suzuki GS500F- Previously converted to a GS500E model for a track bike. It was given to me this way. It's squirreled away. 1997 Suzuki GS500E-Another track bike conversion given to me. It's squirreled away. 1993 and 1992 Suzuki GS500E- I bought these together off a scrap pile for a song and a dance. One is an ongoing resto mod, the other is a parts bike. Both original owners wrecked them soon after buying them. Both were frontal crashes. One was a curb, the other was a solid object, probably a stopped vehicle. They both run, but were missing some misc. body parts. The '93 had 3000 miles when wrecked. The '92 had 1845 miles when wrecked. 1990 Suzuki GS500E roller- Shipped to me in a box. It's squirreled away. 1989 Suzuki GS500E- Heavily modified. All work done by me. I think 90% of the frame is still original. Yes, that is six Suzuki GS500's. I was once completely in love with these bikes. It has since worn off.

ARH - For the riding that I do, the DR and the Hawk are both evenly matched. I was going to keep the Hawk set up a little more off-road and aggressive, and leave the Hawk as a long-distant motocamping tourer. All in all, it's just too much in the house generally and the garage specifically. Especially now that I have the Ural. That thing is an absolute monster in the garage.

2 dual sports, 1 dirt bike, 11 cars, 2 jeeps, and a never ending list of 'yard equipment' that has engines and wheels around here... I think I "Horde" things with engines
...Although I wouldn't say I'm a "Horder"... I remember watching that show a few times and seeing all the decrepit junk and dead cats skeletons piled up to the ceiling in their house/garage... all but 2 of my "things with engines" work... and those 2 vehicles are "Parts Cars" so they were never meant to drive again in the first place  About to add another car to the list... a 2013 WRX STI I'm buying off my brother for cheap!!!  And I still need to get some kind of Truck... I get way too much stuff from Menards/Home Depot/Lowes... and the looks I get packing those things in a Subaru Impreza 4 door Sedan is getting old

The 2013 WRX STI has ~305 hp from the factory... a weeee bit more after the AEM CAI Intake, full Perrin Exhaust system, a V-Mount Intercooler and Radiator setup, all with a custom ECU tune
extremely fun car if you know how to control it

The Yamaha and Husqvarna didn't make it to the photo op.
