hee hee -- well i do have a large database of bikes in my head and hit a few nice ones, but there are lots of cool bikes out there, scooters, sport, daily riders, etc... i think some very pedestrian bikes are totally cool too..
really bikes of all types are cool...

Throw your picks in the mix man!

i will later, i cant think right now..

Right now, Im happy with the bike I have... Although here are some bikes Ive drooled over on occation...

In no particular order, and for no real reason other then I like them.

1- Yamaha FZR 600
2- Honda CB 600
3- Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 Mean Streak
4- Ducati Monster 620
5- Buell City X Lightning...

1. Suzuki GSX-R750
2. Suzuki DRZ400SM
3. Yamaha Vmax (the concept bike)
4. Bimota Tesi 2D
5. Honda RC211V

I just searched and found this when reading about the MT03 in another newer thread... lots has changed since then, but my know my 5 Faves would still satisfy completely....

THROW YOUR CURRENT 5 SWEET BIKES IN THE MIX Guys and Gals!!

GPZ900R (new condition and stock as mine is beaten up frame-wise and tuned)
Ducati 848 EVO (Flat BLack)
2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R
Harley Davidson Night Rod
Racing prepped Suzuki GSX-R 600 (so I can take part in AMA regionals).

Too bad it's only 5, I wanted to add Piaggio MP3 and 1979 Moto Guzzi Le Mans 850 that was at the beginning of the thread.

Ok, just restricting it to current production bikes (if I could choose from every bike ever produced, I'd collapse into a nervous, shuddering wreck of indecision):

Triumph Speed Triple R (the every day, go to bike)
BMW R1200 GS Adventure (a long trip cliché)
Ural Patrol or Gear Up (so I can ride almost regardless of conditions)
BMW S1000RR (gotta have something for the track)
Piaggio MP3 (tooling around, running errands, getting around the city)

2005 Kawasaki ZRX1200R (last year made, big naked "new" retro bike)
http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2 ... X1200R.htm

2010 Harley-Davidson CVO Fat Bob FXDFSE2 (fantastic muscle cruiser)
http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2 ... XDFSE2.htm

2011 MV Agusta F4 Frecce Tricolor (beautiful sportbike design, a work of art)
http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2 ... icolor.htm

1982 Yamaha XJ650RJ (yes, I'd buy one new if they still offered it. I owned one for 6 years)
http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/XJ650.htm

1983 Honda CB1100F (uber classic 80's naked bike)
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=40632

and 1 more, please? haha.

1970's Kawasaki Z1 (how could you not love this one?)
viewtopic.php?t=40632&p=299744

and 2011 Triumph Bonneville T100 (Classic, put around bike)

I have to say, I do not quite feel qualified for this having only ridden my GS500 (and I guess the Nighthawk in class). My dad has invited me to give his Harley a ride around the cul-de-sac... but I will wait until I am very confident in my skills (department bike!). But I sat on a bunch of bikes today, one in particular that made me want to write my list.

1- Triumph Speed Triple
2- Ducati Monster
3- Goldwing
4- Harley Nightrod or XR1200X (though never seen either in person)
5- Some sort of dual sport

The Speed Triple was what I discovered today. The Monster I have not sat on, but in my mind at least it seems similar to the Speed Triple- maybe not at all (but my idea being a sporty-upright). I am torn because I could see a bigger cruiser on there (bigger than the Harleys I listed, but not Goldwing big!)... but I could maybe remove the Speed Triple or Monster after test rides... or the Goldwing? Or the dual sport? Ghar! If I ever got into track riding the list would be subject to change .
