It would be easier if it's out to rate it, but it's not necessary. I do need another suggestion for the next bike or I'll pick one and you might not like it. :D

hahaa.

How about the VFR1200FD? That's the "clutchless" model, works in full automatic or manual paddle shift mode. That ought to stir up some conversation.

How about the Zero electric motorcycle? I read somewhere (was it here?) that a police department somewhere in the US has ordered a fleet of them.

I think the new wonky-eyed Speed Triple is potentially controversial, and to a lesser extent, so is the 800cc Tiger.
