Who cares?

My Harley would be a Mazzaratti.

GS=Hummer

R1150R=Volvo

1970s Saab?.......T100 Bonneville.

Btw, check out the gear for the Bonneville at www.triumphsixty8.com Very cool stuff.

Volvo wagon - Silverwing: practical, spacious, solid. (or maybe a PC800?) Of course, if we're talking about the V70R, then I might go with a VFR, FJR1300, or Futura instead.



1970s Saab - CBX: awkward, off-putting, hard not to love.



Mini - Polini 911.

I sort of thought of Harley as the Cadillac Eldorado convertible. Big, comfortable, not very fast, with the wind in your hair.

Honda Civic -> SV650

hear hear on the harley (laughs)



I think the Mini would be, dare I say it, a buell lightning... small, different, pretty quick.



The 70's saab would be the ducati sport 1000, possibly a ktm duke... just because it's coming from a company thats not really known for sport type bikes.



The volvo station wagon would be a bmw k1200 LT. ugly as they come, but no one can deny their comfort and reliability.

what the heck is an 'aston villa'?

i mean, besides an english soccer team?

did you mean Aston Martin?

 

[48968]

that'd be 'maserati', actually.

 

[ejis]

It strikes me as more of a Miata...

 

[Jonniedee]

A coworker calls my Burgman a mini van motorcycle

 

[dleclerc]

Hope I don't offend anyone but the Miata is more of a hairdressers car. Looks sporty but really is slow, isn't that comfortable, doesn't really excel at anything.



Civc SI VW '06 golf GTI are better comparisons, fast, fun, pratical, and comfortable.

 

[leinj]

I was thinking more of both of them as sporty/practical everyday vehicles for newer/younger people, with a large "cult" following, lots of modding, and amatuer racing.

1970's Saab?

Geez, I already used that anology, I think. Moto Guzzi is the Saab of motorcycling.

 

[47837]

Speaking as a Silverwing owner, you read my mind on that.

 

[56760]

I heard they were cheap to maintain and run around a track though because they don't go through tires. I think it's the near 50/50 weight distribution and rear-wheel drive part that's responsible for that. I'm sure it helps that the car is underpowered. I think a WRX is a better way to go, but then I guess it isn't convertable...

Re: 1970's Saab?

Really? I always liked Moto Guzzi.

 

[davidhaner]

You nailed it.

 

[stodd1111]

The Mini of motorcycles would be the new Vespa GTS 250. It's very stylish, works great, and costs way more than it should.

My Harley's a Lay-z-Boy.
