there are so many different ways to rank bikes... value, image, performance (twisties, highway eaters). Overall its tough to compare, but here's my top 3:
1. Suzuki SV100s - best looking bike ever *drool*
2. Honda CBR600 F4i - comfy bike with all the performance of a 600 super-sport
3. Yammaha YZF R6 (assuming the drive-dog issue was fixed in '03) - smokin styling, more power than you'll ever need, decent ergos and unbeatable performance.
Honorable mentions to:
YZF 600R for its all-arounder characterstics
Kawasaki Z-1000 for its in-your-face styling...
I think we all love the GS for value and ease of maintenance, but in the overall analysis, it just comes up short IMHO.

Here are my picks . . .
1. Yamaha YZF 600R - Comfort and performance wrapped up in a very attractive package. Love that Yamaha blue paint scheme!
2. Suzuki Bandit 600 - Great sport performance without the insurance shock facter that goes with fully faired sportbikes.
3. Yamaha FJR1300 - Perfect for two, but still fun for one. Shaft drive is a big plus here too! Insurance shock factor just kicked back in on this one! ;)
Just my opinion, but hey, it's back to reality, and my 1990 GS500! Oh well, as long as it's got two wheels and a motor, sign me up!!!

If I could own 3 bikes:
1. Aprilia Tuono w/the Carbon and Ohlins parts (forget what model)
2. Kawasaki Z1000
3. Yamaha Roadstar Warrior (yeah its a cruiser but its a fast cruzer that would put the harleys to shame)

1 Vincent Black Shadow
2 Norton Manx
Both of them would have to be parked in my family room on each side of the fireplace (hey, I dream big!)
3 just to tool around ...out of all the bikes I've had I miss my BMW K100rs the most, so I'd like another one!
Did I just show my age? :dunno:

This is my all-time V-Twin List...
To look at only (and in no particular order)
'74 Moto Morini 3 1/2 sport
'77 HD XLCR Cafe Racer
'50 Vincent Black Shadow
To ride (again, no particular order)
Ducati ST3
KTM Duke 990 (not out yet, but...)
Aprilia RSV1000 Touno
No make repeated, no Japanese (at least, not on THIS top 3)
The GS is on the top three list of bikes I own (counting bicycles) ;) :cheers:

How about cars?
I chose:
1995 Mazda RX-7 twin turbo
1970-72 Porsche 911S
1973 Alfa Romeo GTV 2000
Maybe a 240Z or mid-90s M3, and oh, yeah a Toyota Tacoma!
The nice thing about my list is that isn't too exotic and I might actually own a few of these cars in my lifetime. Heck, I've already owned a '72 240Z.

1) 1972 750 Norton Commando, black with gold pinstriping. I miss my old Norton!
2) 2006 Ducati 1000 Sport Classic. I wish they'd use valve springs instead of that silly desmo stuff, but that is a beautiful bike. I'm twitching about sending my deposit in for a production slot...
3) My silver '82 BMW R100s. Great fun, comfortable sport touring bike, once you get to terms with the big suspension travel and weird shaft drive effects. I love eating the miles on this bike. A smoked silver '76 R90S would be classier, but too expensive....
Cars are just for towing the race bike to the track, and getting to work in the winter! Although... a few laps around Nurburgring in a '67 Lotus 49 F1 car would be a treat!

Sorry, in no particular order:
Burgman 600 for the superslab
VStrom 650 for everyday
Monster 620 for fun
...and the GS for what I can afford, what I can insure, what won't break when it tips, and what I can fix when it breaks.

I toyed with placing that Ducati on my list, and the other two would end up on others; as well as the Smoke Red R90S on the "top 3 all time best factory paint jobs". Excellent choices! :thumb: :cheers:

I still drool at R90S silver or orange and pearl white R100RS. R bikes are way cool and my R75/7 was perfect around twisties and later with a side car attached.
My K100rs (flat black) was my Iron Butt bike. 500miles to NYC, party all nite, then 500 miles home in less then 24hrs several times......couple of 1500 in 24 also.
I've had some really neat bikes in 25 years of riding on the street, but still miss my K100 (Mad Max) the most. Second fav was a '77 GL1000 Cafe Racer. Squids just hated to passed by a Gold Wing with my wife on the back. :lol:

2) Ducati GT1000---Holy crap this bike is gorgeous.

All 3 are beautiful in their own unique way.
Top 3 cars...
1) 95-98 Nissan 240SX with an RB25DET engine.
2) The Mazda Miata hardtop coupe that's been at the car shows.
3T) 1976 Corvette with a stupidly hot engine.
3T) 1949 Plymouth Sedan with a stupidly hot engine.
I have dreams about driving fast cars. I guess that comes from 10 years of driving a shitbox 4cyl pickup....

Yes, yes, yes... I thought I would have been the only one to have any Studebaker, much less that one, in a top 3. Was that a Raymond Loewy design? Every year, I look at all the new models in search of one so simply beautiful. Every time I'm disappointed. :cheers:

Top 3 on my "realistic" list of bikes I would want to own:
1) Suzuki SV650 (faired or unfaired version) -- Best bang for your buck
2) Yamaha V-max -- Torque monster King
3) Suzuki GSF 400 Bandit -- a shame manufacturers don't make similiar cc sized bikes like this
(remember I'm only 5'2" so my choices are somewhat limited)
Top 3 cars I could "realistically" afford to own:
1) Dodge Viper GTS -- Torque monster king via its V-10 engine (I know, I know - this would be a bit of an economic stretch for me, but I couldn't resist)
2) Mazda RX-8 -- can you say ROTARY? (hidden doors are cool too!)
3) Subaru Impreza WRX (STi edition) -- urban rally racer's dream
1) Suzuki SV650 (faired or unfaired version) -- Best bang for your buck
2) Yamaha V-max -- Torque monster King
3) Suzuki GSF 400 Bandit -- a shame manufacturers don't make similiar cc sized bikes like this
(remember I'm only 5'2" so my choices are somewhat limited)
Top 3 cars I could "realistically" afford to own:
1) Dodge Viper GTS -- Torque monster king via its V-10 engine (I know, I know - this would be a bit of an economic stretch for me, but I couldn't resist)
2) Mazda RX-8 -- can you say ROTARY? (hidden doors are cool too!)
3) Subaru Impreza WRX (STi edition) -- urban rally racer's dream

2) 1953 Studebaker 2-Dr Hardtop - Any V-8 model.
Yes, yes, yes... I thought I would have been the only one to have any Studebaker, much less that one, in a top 3. Was that a Raymond Loewy design? Every year, I look at all the new models in search of one so simply beautiful. Every time I'm disappointed. :cheers:
Yup. Loewy's best. A design masterpiece. Compare and contast to a '53 Furd or Chebie. Too bad they started hanging on more chrome each year after '53 and even tailfins later, as the Hawk. :dunno:
:cheers:

My Dad actually had two '53 Studebakers at one point - one that ran and one that didn't (He paid $80 and $40, respectively :o ). He didn't have a drivers license at that time, so he would drive them in my grandfathers driveway. I guess one day he wasn't paying attention to what he was doing and took out the back wall of the garage. Shortly thereafter, he no longer had those Studebakers anymore ...

For looks, Triumph T-Bird sports. For sound, almost anything with an italian engine. For practicality, I guess I'll stick with GS.
