1/ 1600 Thunderbird with aftermarket pipes. awesome, 1st time I have wanted the lights to turn red, just so i could tear off again.
2/ Honda Varadero. looks horrid but stonkin engine. instant power on tap.
3/Buell Ulysses. shouldn't work but it does. what a hoot!
and the losers

4/ Honda VFR800.pointless VTEC means my licence would not remain so. the power band was adictive but to far up rev range
5/ old model Ducati Multistrada. this is the only bike that after 5 mins I wanted to return to the shop. I didnt, I persevered but wish I hadn't. uncomfy, vibey and just truly awful.
