  1. Brash and success do not always go hand in hand. But fair play to the guy, if you are going o spend money better on bikes than wasting it :upyeah:

    I'd do the same, except they would all be different types and hopefully ridden...unless it was collecting notable race bikes or bikes from history ala the great hideaway that is Sammy Millers

  3. Lovely!! Wonder what he does for a living.........does he need an apprentice??

    How does he insure them....my insurance company's arse fell out when I told them I'd added a 1098R Bayliss to my 916 Foggy!!

  4. I nearly bought a TVR Griff but the insurance killed me. Wouldnt mind just the 350exc KTM never mind the rest. Lovely collection.

  5. But there's the difference, Sammy rides all of his and isn't afraid to crash them either!

  7. Love the way you can see one of his small children climbing all over the SP5, well what better place to play hide 'n' seek ..............

    Apparently he also collects china plates, like to see that collection.

  12. Think a foggy championship winning bike may trump anything other than a WSB FO bike...

  13. Foggy didn't win a championship on an 888. Just the 916 and 996. I didn't see a factory 916, but I didn't watch the whole thing, so please correct me if I'm wrong.

  16. Very nice. But I'm intrigued as to what he does or has done for a living? Is he one of the Brinks-Matt robbers? :smile:

  17. bet hes a plumber.

  18. That's one serious collection! A lottery winner by any chance? Shame that some of them don't get started or ridden, but I guess with that many bikes, and so few hours in each day he couldn't ride them all anyway. I'm sure there's plenty on here who would help him out though!

  19. Nice eh ? I saw this collection in a magazine a couple of years ago (Visordown I think it was before they stopped publishing it). Amazing, I'd spend all day, everyday with that collection.

  20. He is chief exec of a recruitment conpany, google is your friend :smile: Nice collection that. And to be fair, looking at the visordown road test, doesnt appear too precious about them
