By the way, sounds like you're getting old and really want an RT but can't admit it

I ride like an idiot on my 'strada and tonight when I'm cruising for once, I get busted. I got the lecture but no ticket but he did call me Sir while I got the stink eye from him. Very depressing on all counts.

So yeah, maybe it's time to get the RT and cut back on the lane splitting anarchy the MTS seems to bring out in me. A track bike to let off steam is going to be essential though

I'm kind of out of the loop on non sport bike demand - is this one going to be hard to get your hands on in the beginning? I remember dealing with that on my S1K, even tough it is a 2012 and was out 3 years already, the demand for it was off the charts.

Yeah those 'conversations' can be quite sobering can't they. Age brings a different reaction, when younger we are just annoyed at being caught, a little older and we think that maybe the officer has a point. But I'm sure you know that having a RT doesn't necessarily make you slower, I know it cuts down the wheelies though. You have me worried that my inner hooligan has not grown up yet, we'll see when I get my multi.

Would love to see Kawasaki return the ZRX1200R to the USA

In the most perfect of worlds where I could have anything I wanted: a Britten V1000


In an unlikely but possible world: a Ducati D16RR DesmoSedici, and/or a Bimota Tesi 3D



In real life, that I genuinely probably will buy: a Ducati 998 and/or a Norton 750 Commando



For my daily use, I can't find a better bike than my good old Ducati Monster, although if BMW took that nice new six they've got and built a naked version -- a K1600R -- I'd be very likely to buy that.

I have been testriding stuff for fun the last few years. Below is my list so far of what I've tested, and what I still want to test.

This is my short list at the moment,
in order:
Ducati HyperMotard 1100S EVO
Ducati StreetFighter
MV Agusta Brutale 1090
Moto Guzzi Griso 8V
BMW K1300R (if I can get one)
BMW K1600R (if they build one)
Buell 1125CR (if put back in production)
=====
If money is an issue:
Kawasaki Z1000
Triumph Street Triple R
Ducati HyperMotard 796
=====
This is what I've testridden in the past
couple years that I’d say is worth a look:
BMW R1200R
Ducati Monster 1100S
BMW K1300S
Aprilia Shiver 750
Ducati 848
Triumph Speed Triple
BMW S1000RR
BMW F800GS
Aprilia RSV4 Factory
Triumph Daytona 675
Aprilia RSV4R
KTM 950SM

=====
This is what I've testridden in the past
couple years that didn't make my list:
Ducati SportClassic GT1000
BMW F800ST
KTM RC8
Harley Road King
BMW K1300GT

Harley XR1200
Harley VRSC (V-Rod)

Triumph Rocket III Touring
Triumph Bonneville Thruxton
Triumph Tiger 1050

Norton Commando 961
Honda CB1000R
Suzuki B-King

=====
This is my list of what I’d specifically enjoy
a test on, outside my scope:

Ducati 1198S or 1098R
KTM RC8R
Honda VFR1200
Honda CBR1000RR
Triumph Sprint GT
