One. The one in my head working the f'in controls.... causing a lifelong obsession and interest of motorised 2 wheel things to the exception of just about everything else....

Only 6 for me... too many projects, most have been started but then I get side tracked. One is a modern Triumph Tiger all the rest are Golden Oldies.

There are some serious addictions on here.
Funny line i read recently was: my nightmare is that i die and my wife sells all my bikes for the same price that i told her i paid for them.

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... Damn Id love another big old LC4... send it to me in parcels Haha. I'm due to go back down there next week, so I really will try to do something with it. I got it as a px for my YPVS-engined Hejira 'special', which I really never should have sold anyway. It's been supermotarded with 17" Suzuki wheels (and 20 year old wets on them) and really deserves better. It was also on a 'Q' plate and I've lost the V5C for it, so it's all a bit of a 'mare...
If I actually had space for it (which I don't) I'd bring it back in the van.

Sounds like the perfect bike. A cheap supermoto that you dont have to worry about... other than the paperwork hassles of course. Please do a build thread on it is you do bring it back, love these!

Thats the bike that put me in "the clavicle club". That's often the case with the 350LC prody racers. My YZ is the WR version, which was the enduro spec with a wide ratio gear box and a lighting coil. My RD200 put me in the clavicle club, damn that non-folding footpeg. Woke up in hospital with my parents in the room and my Dad telling the copper to drop the bike in a skip.

One complete RZ350 YPVS , one in a box and pieces, 1979 YZ125 restored and a Yamaha YXZ1000R SXS, that thing takes up some space in the garage. Almost as fun as the RZ !

Just remembered, it also has no electric foot and the kick start is on the LH side. Need to make sure the decompressor cables are correctly adjusted... There's work to be done before I can even bring it back. It hasn't fired up in 20 years and it has no front brake. As I live on the side of a steep hill that is problematic...

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? Um…17. Would have been 18 had the Gamma been a 500 instead of an 400. Seller never once referred to the capacity. Only found out AFTER I wired all the money and I finally got the registration. Funny right?

Yep, thats a 'real LC4' with its left side kicker. Once mastered you'll be fine, I was very good at starting mine in the end lol Actually mine didnt have the auto decomp that i think yours has, so it was all manual to start it, done by feel... and prayer. Hahaha Buy a front brake before you set out there from ebay.

I am thinning all of mine down, got 8 left, sold 4 this year, probably dropping down to 2 or 3 Got one customer who has 82 motorbikes and another who has 96, plus 44 cars ! - them 2 alone can keep me busy 100% of the time if I allowed them ! I do think the 2 of them do have a problem though
