I saw the thread about someone needing an oil pump to keep their bike on the road while the pump was serviced, then I thought why not use one of your other bikes as everyone has more than one...but Mrs says some people only have one...so let's see
How many have you got?

I have 2 but one of them is a 1989 YZ250, so not useful as a road bike.

I'm torn here
I have 1 ready to go but I have another 3 in bits
Now an oil pump I could deal with, got 2 new 350, 1 rebuilt 350 and 1 rebuilt 250 🤪

Currently I have 6 bikes. I did at one time have 14 but during Covid lockdowns decided to move on the restored bikes to make room for another resto bike or two, current bikes I have my H2 regular user, one restored, one in progress, 2 waiting and a box of bits that will hopefully become a Z1A. I'm also off to Europe in 2 weeks hopefully picking up a couple more.

Five bikes at present...
2014 ZZR1400 on the road
2005 KTM 450 EXC for the dirt/green laning with the TRF
1996 YZF 600 Thundercat in pieces after my nephew put it into the side of a truck trailer and then started stripping/sanding it (without mechanical sympathy.)
1989 Kawasaki ZX-10B Tomcat - rusty wreck - undecided what to do with this as yet
1983 RD 350 LC2 - Just needs painting now. Oh, and the carbs cleaned again, and a Dyno coil fitting, and new plug wires, and... and... and...

I have 6 but use 4 all the time. Space is the biggest issue for me so will over time reduce it to 3 or 4. I find it a pain also keeping them all fettled ready to ride. I’d rather just ride 👍🏻

This will be a very interesting pole… see the extent of the addiction that the ‘average’ frequent member will own up to!

Only 3 , two of which are runners , and a old project I've lost interest in about 10 years ago.
Maybe I should increase my options and get it mobile again.
How many consists a fleet ?

Fleet = answer having taken legal advice to avoid mentioning a specific number…

Two here, well 1 3/4 in reality, as the LC is still being rebuilt.

Currently 3 for me - less and less interested in riding modern stuff these days- enjoy fettling more - so the Trumpet might go this year - if I had the space I can think of 6-7 other bikes I would love to own -
CB400/4 1976
LC2 31K 1983
Triumph Street Triple 2015
Seems to be a common theme of multiple bike ownership ?

A straight forward question but not a straightforward answer from me  R1, VFR and RGV250 all complete and in one piece and running OK (just about) but only the VFR is fully legal and can be jumped on and ridden at any time. RD200, rolling chassis and an engine in a boxes and another 200 frame/log book and engine in boxes. 350 LC's, 3 but one is only a frame/engine and 90% of the bits. The other two are in hundreds of bits. I was cracking on with reducing that to just dozens of bits before going back to work scuppered the schedule. Oh, and the Yamaha SR125 long distance tourer/adventure bike. There's also a couple of bikes that belong to the youngest lad one of which is registered in my name. I call it nine bikes but it's stretching it a bit with the 2nd RD200 and 3rd LC350. |

Six for me:
1980 Yamaha RD250LC, 1981 Yamaha RD350LC, 1984 Kawasaki GPz900R A1, 1999 Yamaha Fazer 600, 2019 Yamaha MT10SP and a 2000 Honda C90 which is actually on its way.
All are road legal and used although the Fazer sees the most use as its my winter / commuter bike.
Truth be told, i could sell them all except the Fazer as its the best bike i have in many respects but that would be sensible and i am too old to start being sensible now...

I have 6, but only 5 are listed in my sig. The other one is a really old KTM 640 that has sat in the same place in my French gaff for nearly 20 years. I really ought to do something with it...

4, and oddly none are an RD, I joined here a TDR forum and a TZR forum when bike shopping and ended up buying an R1-z. Kind of stuck around out of general 2 stroke interest and I may get a project RD one day but prices are off putting.
Jingheng M50d, Honda z50 copy, my first road bike, it was a trashed kids field bike when I bought it and is now quite tidy.
CCM R30 644, cheap rough winter bike, I might keep it as that or strip and restore it or move it on for the next project, but it's nice being able to ride in winter without overly worrying about salt damage.
Beta Evo 250, probably my most used bike.
Yamaha R1-z, currently rebuilding the motor due to it popping out of 1st gear, when stripped it also needed a rebore and crank rebuild.

Just my LC2 at the moment, I’m on the lookout for a ZRX1100 diesel though
Now if you want to talk treaders (bicycles), I’ll admit to 7 and enough to build another…..
