I would ask about the B-King, but I doubt I could pick it off the kickstand.

I'd love try try almost any dual sport and supermotos!

I did sit on a friend's new (to him) '06 Gix 1000 and freakin' fell in love! The seat isn't as wide as mine which means I can get the balls of both feet down for once! The seating position didn't feel near as aggressive as the R6 I sat on a few months ago....and OMFG that bike felt LIGHT!

Is the 600's identical to the 1000's like that? I'd love to ride one!

You'd love the GSXR 600 in that case!

I want to swap for part of a ride with Drewpy... just to compare the big Suzi twin to the RC...

Over200s crazy ass turbo busa that goes well over 200mph, just because it would scare the hell out of me but also be the ride of my life.

Marko or Cutty's Buells because I've never ridden one, and I'm curious as to whether I would like one someday

I thought about the V-Max but to tell you the truth, and this may sound stupid. I'm afraid that they have engineered all of the character out of the bike. I owned an '88 and totally loved it! It's a close tie between that bike and my '01 GSXR for my favorite bike of all time. The old school V-Max was just gnarly to ride and required complete throttle control ( and a complete lack of sense) to ride fast. I about shit my pants several times on that bike but I've never had a larger or stupider grin on my face since.

no idea, but i still think it'd be fun to try out and if i didnt like it it would flip for enough to snag a new zed ten with mods. win/win in my book

My best friend had an RC with a set of Jardines and a Power Commander. You will be sorely disappointed and want your TLR back in short order.

The RC was one of those bikes that just didn't live up to it's billing to me. The brakes kicked ass, but that was bout all I can say good about it.
