Bikes and their car equivalent…
Discussion
Just as a bit of fun, me and some
Bikes mates were coming up with a list of car equivalent of various bikes. Thought I’d through a few out there. Feel free to change or add any of your own. Some of them really make you think….
Ducati V4 Superleggera - Lamborghini Huracan STO. Bonkers
BMW GS - Land Rover Defender Twisted. Fast on road and more than capable off.
Bandit 1200 - VW Golf. Dependable, can survive with the smallest amount of maintenance it would appear…
Honda Golding - Any LWB German super saloon. Just too much of everything and a little bit embarrassing to have to tell people you own.
Ducati 900 SS Paul Smart - Mercedes SL Goldwing. Effortless cool but keeping recovery on speed dial 1.
Harley Sportster - New Ford Mustang. Loud noises and frequent fuel stops. Trying to be as cool as the original and just missing the mark.
2006 Honda Fireblade - Porsche 911. Someone Googled which sports car/superbike should I buy and ended up with these.
Triumph Bonneville - Morgan Plus Four. Desperately trying to stay as close to the original as possible and from arms length, doing very well.
KTM Superbike R - 2022 Ariel Atom. Precision tool which packs a colossal punch.

Suzuki GSX-R 750 - Subaru Impreza WRX. Power to the people! Bad image and perceptions masking tremendously capable machines
Any 600cc Japanese Non sportsbike (CB650, Z650, SV) - Astra, Focus, Golf. All we need but is it all we want?
Honda NC750 - Ford Transit. The courier's friend. Probably still be one running years after Putin nukes us all.

Ha, is that what they use now.Used a few GT550 back in the day, try and find a good one now!
Mate had a CX500 and that was just as good, if not better, than the GT.

BMW R1200RS - M135i: traditional engine layout developed over decades; carries two people and luggage over large distances in comfort; great fun at 7/10th's but gets a bit wobbly beyond that.
No way, can't compare the whooshy 6 with that farty twin.M240i would equate to the S1000R, both a more subtle option to a M2/S1000RR
Biased? Yes, despite not being a BMW fan.
