Which of these 3 motorcycles should i buy?
-
The 3 motorcycles i'm interested in are the Suzuki Hayabusa, Harley Davidson FXD super glide, and the Ducati multistrada 1100. I know these bikes are in 3 completely different classes but I can only get one for now. I'm torn between them and cannot figure out which one to buy. Any help is appreciated. Whoever gives me the best true reason to buy a particular bike wins. Thanks in advance

Answer:
If you picked a 1098 Duc I wouldve thought you are just trying to fit into one of three posing crowds. Ask yourself what kind of riding do you really enjoy ie: putting down the road, making long trips, corner carving, etc and then pick the bike that does what you like most best. If you like riding in parades dont buy a sport bike, if you like corner carving dont buy a cruiser. Granted you can do these things on bikes that dont do them well, but it doesnt pack the enjoyment.

Buy the Hog. You'll love it and it will hold value better. Do you know how to double the value of a Suzuki? Fill it up with gas.

Sounds to me that you TRUELY do not know what you want out of life! Time to see the Motopsychologist first...... what do you enjoy about riding??? ;-) Suzuki will give you bragging rights on the street/strip, and is fair in the twisties - good for sweepers. The Harley will give you bragging rights at the pub, good for nice leisurely cruises. The Duc will give you bragging rights on the trail, and would be pretty good on tight twisty roads. Ask yourself which place do you do the most bragging (showing off?) - then get the bike that fits. Funny how many folks on Harleys MUST convince you that it is what you need. After plunking down all that $$$, I think many are still trying to convince themselves... ;-)

Really depends on the type of riding you do. Think about where you ride the most and what type of roads you ride and your riding style. May not be the answer your looking for but you can't let others make decisions like that for you.

Get the Harley that all i got to say it speaks for itself

The MultiStrada will out run them both in Traffic and on twisty roads. It wheelstands and does stoppies with ease. The super glide is limited to cruising and the Hyabusa is old school now. A new R1 has almost the same power and speed and is more fun on track days. Hyabusa and Harley are large and heavy. The Ducati is svelte. It's a no brainer get the Ducati but wait until July when the dealers give freebies. Yes I had a Multistrada and loved it.

Buy the Harley, me and my husband have a Harley FXD Superglide and it is wonderful. You won't regret it if you buy it. Good luck.

After agreeing wholeheartedly with pappy, I'll put in a word for the FXD. It's not limited to cruising, or bragging rights. If that were true, it would not be my ride. You need to analyze your needs and wants. The superbikes are fast, and handle the "twisties", but won't handle the type of turning back roads I ride. The FXD does, easily, and at speeds faster than safe. I could give a list of reasons to pick one over the other, but they're my reasons. You need to use your own. It's your ride, you pick it.

Those are three VERY different types of bike, though the Hayabusa and Ducati are more closely related. Cruisers are comfortable going slow, since that's all they can do. It's about style and low-speed comfort and long distances. The Hayabusa will tear your arms off before you highside into a brick wall unless you are a VERY experienced sportbike rider. It won't be comfy on long trips, but you'll get there very quickly! The Duc looks funny IMO, but is a very practical and functional motorcycle. Still very powerful, it is not for the first time rider (none of these are). But you can sit more upright, go touring on it, as well as have fun in the canyons and go fast in the straights. It is a good all-rounder. You buy a bike based on your personality, the bike's comfort, and your skill level as a rider. Whatever makes you happy is the best bike, no matter how much you spend or what other people are riding. Just be sure to budget a good chunk for full riding gear, including a full-face helmet, because any bike can toss you.
