After watching last night's marathin of "The Walking Dead" I decided the best chance of survival involves a motorcycle.

So folks. Which bike would you choose as the perfect zombie evading mayhem machine?

I'm going with the 990 Adventure. And an axe.
 
I disagree completely. All it would take is one walker to reach out and grab you off the bike. Then you're down, the bike may be immobilized, and you are completely unprotected. Not to mention the fact that people with weapons, but no transportation will covet your vehicle, and since you have no protection, you're a perfect target for sniper fire.

BUT, if you must have a moto, the best choice would be a dual sport, or dirt bike since walkers will usually stay near populated areas, and a dirtbike will allow you to get places others can't.
 
KLR650. Infact, I have one.

The key is using it to go for supplies, while making a fortified place to fight off walkers.
 
Best bet for zombie survival is avoidance...so something Dualie that I can use on/off road. Light wieght to be able to pick up easily (just in case) and big gas tank.



(and a flame thrower...not because it's very useful...but 'cause it's badass.)
 
You dont need outright speed, you need the ability to go anywhere do anything, hop curbs and go off road if needed. Carrying supplies is also necessary, since gas will become increasingly scarce as time goes on. The key is having a well fortified position to defend from, and live in an area with bountiful natural resources. Monterey is surrounded by farmland, which one could forage for food. Also, the sea. Noones talking about fighting walkers from the moto, thats just not a good idea.
 
I'd actually go for a light 4wd pickup truck (old toyota 4 cyl?) with a KLR with a big gas tank tossed in the bed.
 
I was gonna say whatever bike Chuck Norris used in Delta Force but looks like it's a KLX 650.

Hahaha! Always cracks me up when people get the Road Warrior mixed up with the Night of the Living Dead. Let me put it simply, either way YOUR DEAD! No savings throw, no twelve sided dice, dead! "I'm gonna weld some machetes onto the.." No! Anytime you wanna play apocalypse I'll play zombie and you try to get by me. K? Same in Zombieland. You go down, your dead. Now get back in the tank and think about it mister:rofl

We are all dead, some just sooner than others. :|
 
I think i'd rather have a mountain bike... what're you going to do when the only gas available is in a location over run by walkers or controlled by gangs/looters/bandits/etc...
 
If it HAS to be a bike, the M103M1:

We had them in the Army and I'm pretty sure the Marines did, as well. I think (Don't swear me to this) they are Kawi KLRs.

Why is this my pick? Diesel engine. Yup. Diesel baby. Nothing better for when SHTF.
 
when nobody is looking, i'd just shove bacon strips in every one of you mofo's exhaust pipes and i go the opposite direction...

i'll just be that asshole in every movie everyone wishes would die but never does ...
