my favorite bike was my XS 650 special it was the dogs, straight through pipes bates lamp and lowered shocks, did huge amount of miles on it and it never let me down once, had it for years and then got a gpz hardtail chop sold the xs to finance the purchase. biggest mistake i ever made.
had a halco 840 too but thats a different story fast as fook tho

I,m on my third bike now. My current custom bike I had built is the best bike I have owned. It's a blast to ride. Probably because it has a lot of my own touches on it.

The best bike for me is the TL1000S. It is comfy, and has the power that I need... not to mention the vibrations!!

Blimey, tough question ....
My VFR400 NC30 was great, if you had loose change in one pocket only, it's turn that way, the handling was excellent.
My first Blade (96) was a revelation and a half, my first knee down bike (without falling off) and I WILL have another one one day.
The 00 Blade was the most sporty and I modded it so that it was truly unique, that I would love to have back as a toy but ......
The Blackbird is the best, it does everything so well but is a real blast as well, it shows a clean pair of heels to pretty much everything and I get off without the aches and pains of the Blade.
Cheers
Grim
