For Streetbikes my favorites have been my '98 Honda VTR1000 Superhawk and my 2001 Honda Valkyrie Interstate.

Track bikes, My favorite is my old 2001 R1. Should've never parted it out. That bike was dialed in and I felt everything on it. My new '05 R1 I cant seem to bond with and I've been riding it for three years. I'm having the suspension redone and resetup before next season. If that doesnt work it's gone...

My RC51 was the most exciting bike I ever rode. There was something about it I just loved.

My cbr1000rr was lightning fast, but had no soul.

but no bike puts a smile on my face like my softail does.

Best all-round bike: Fast, Fun, Reliable, Economical...possible to do 1000 mile days and then go out and blast the twisties....

1982 Yamaha Turbo

Bike most likely to garner a suspended license: Torque up the wazoo, solid yet nimble....90 feels like 50.....

955i Daytona

Best Impression of a Mistress: Exciting, easy on the eyes, and fun to ride......and makes you worry when others are looking at her....

2000 Bimota DB4


Best Raw Sportbike: Period .... R1

That description of the DB4 is pretty damn accurate!

I really like my Mille. Handles great, has about as good a suspension as you can get, has the high torque of a twin, and plenty enough HP for me.
