Only one bike? Sounds a bit sad but it would have to be the Multistrada! I know it sounds a boring choice but for me I can do what I enjoy on it. Sure it would be nice to have a full on race bike sat there but thats exactly what it would be doing most of the time just sitting there. It would have to be able to be used as often as I wanted to use it. Its something I can get up on a Sunday morning and ride all day. Thats what its all about for me.

Now let me see,

I would have some sort of nasty 2 stroke. Such as a 500 GP bike, maybe the RGV500 or perhaps the NSR500.

I would really need some sort of mordern race bike such as the Ducati GP bike.

And then I would have a Vincent Black lightning. The Britten V twin is another one I would like.

Oh a some nice little tricked up Ducati 996 or 998 just to pootle about on.
