Well now, I figure every list such as this needs someone at the low end of the totem pole. The low end here has to be overall experience. Here goes:

98 Honda Magna
99 Suzuki GSX-1300R

I could put in countless pre years of 'thought about buying a motorcycle,' but it's just not the same. :)
 
My list is 1968 XLCH heavily modded, 1971 H2 Kawasaki, 1972 CB750 Honda, 1979 Kawasaki Z1, 1985 BMW K100RS, 1986 GSXR 1100 modded, 1992 GSXR 1100 modded, 1993 GSXR 750 modded, 1995 Ducati 916 modded, 1997 GSXR 750 modded,1997 TL1000S, 1997 Honda 900RR modded,1998 Honda 900RR modded, 1998 GSXR 750 modded, 1998 ZX9R, 1998 R1,1999 GSX1300R It's been quite a ride.
