In my case, I go against my Chopper nature and go more for a racers' style here. A 1971 HD SuperGlide. Something about the uniqueness of this bike just calls out to me.

   Here's one that I wanted back then, and wouldn't mind having now. I had forgotten about the Ducati singles of old.                                         Later on, Bill

       Hey Breeze,
                  I'm not too much on the Harleys, but I'm with ya on the others. I've always like those and
       especially that Norton. About a year ago, I came out of a local grocery store and saw a Norton
       Fastback sitting there in the parking lot. Well, I just waited around to talk to the owner and hear
       that baby fire up. He came out, we talked a bit and when he left,....ahhh...a...sound.....oh.so......
       sweeeeeeeeet! ;D :D ;) 8)

   I know that I titled this "Which oneWould You Pick" and then Icouldn't seem to pick just one! That just shows you that (while some of us seem to be on line for one particular bike), in the back of our mind, we are just mainly "BIKE" oriented. ;D If I really had to narrow it down to just ONE bike, I believe it would be that 53' Indian Chief that I posted earlier. Can anyone else, that listed several, go back and pick just one? ??? ::) Let's see what you can do. ;D

                                                      Later on, Bill :) ;)

having to narrow it down to just one...i would choose the CB750SC Nighthawk. I hope to own one someday to go with my VF and my CB750K4
'84 Chevy C10
'73 MGB Roadster
'69 Ford F250
