Other motorcycles you own

I was curious to see what other makes and models you own or if a V8 is your only choice/ride.
- How often do you ride the others?
- If you are going for a ride is the V8 the first choice?
- Is it situation dependent?
post pics!

I've got a 2000 Ultra Classic, bought new, triked in 2004. We thought it was the cat's ass. After a while, I got tired of constantly shifting and just about never being able to pass someone. Lots of noise, but no vrrrooooom. Therefore...
- How often do you ride the others?
Hopefully Never. The Ultra can sit in the garage.
- If you are going for a ride is the V8 the first choice?
For sure. After the BH, the Ultra seems so small, almost toy-like.
- Is it situation dependent?
Yea, I guess. If the BH isn't running, I guess I have no choice!
Here's the (hopefully) permanently retired HD...

Thanks for the compliment on my rear… oh, you meant the trike, sorry. Due to several long stories, my entry into the V8 world has been a long arduous task. After a nine month journey from ordering, I only had my trike for 2 weeks and 600 miles. Then back to Stamford, then winter set in. I only cleaned it 1 ½ times, and didn’t get any pictures.
Here’s what I do have, hope you enjoy…
