Granted there are several bikes i'd love to own if money was an option. However if you ever get the oppertunity, go test ride a BMW K1200S. By far that is the most fun motorcycle i've ever ridden. I had so much fun when I rode it last year at bikeweek, I had to do it again this year.

The bike has the comfort of a good sport touring bike, handles like a ZX-6R, and has 167 hp. Plus you add in the electronic adjustable suspension that you can change while riding and heated grips and you have a fun ass bike

Would concur. Other bikes have come and gone here but this thing remains. MCN gave it a rare five star rating. Has a top ten lap time around Nurburgring. It is one thoughtful, refined, and state-of-the-art bike. Can take it to the track/canyon, can also take it to the next time zone over... in comfort.
