But I've also got a 'thing' for Nekkid bikes, and both the Speed Triple and the Street Triple make my heart go pitter patter (haven't owned either.... YET).

I'd have to say my Gpz-900r that I rocked before the ZX-11.

Might be because it was the only bike that I didn't have fix.
Could be that it was such a leap forward from 83 NightHawk I had before it.

I've only owned two, a 1992 GSXR 750 and my 2005 Buell XB12R. I've ridden many, GSXR 600's, 750's, TL1000, OTB's Bimota, etc...

By far my favorite is my XB. I love that bike...it's so much fun...and it looks awesome.

I've only had two bikes....the Ninja and the Hornet. There are things I love about both of them, but the Hornet was definitely a far superior bike and more to my taste.

The Ninja is a fantastic little bike, but I prefer a naked 4(or triple

) over that buzzy little thing.

Tie. I like my 1979 GS1000. It was my first four-stroke, my first superbike, and the first bike I bought new. I still enjoy riding it, so I must like it.

I also like my 1990 CBR1000. My first water-cooled bike, my first fully-faired bike, my first "Oh my God, this thing is fast" bike, and my second superbike. I must like it, since I decided to repair the cylinder head myself. Even though the bulk of the bike is in the garage, I never believed that so many other parts could take up one workbench, one stack of shelves, and part of a floor.
