    I always liked the S model myself,I'm just to short to ride it in comfort.
    At 5'8" and a 30" inseam the bike just stretches out too much,otherwise......the styling fits me fine

    I'm not sure what this is, but I'll take one. That thing looks bad-ass

    Considering the cold, insurance costs, and my lack of proper luggage, I've been eyeing (and against my better judgement, since I love goldwings) a Concours 1000

    Bought mine about a month ago. Cheap as dirt, runs like a top, and grin-per-mile is high. Get one, you won't regret it.

    I'm surprised by the number of BMW's in this thread. I wonder if those lusting after a Beemer have ever owned one?

    From what I can tell this whole forum attracts a lot of BMW fans in general, probably due to the whole GS/adventure thing.

    Yammy 465? That's an odd little (?) motorcycle.

    Yes, I am starting to think this might be it and it's bye-bye Ducati. Just seems to tick so many boxes.

    However, putting the head stuff on one side (pun intended) and getting back to the lust theme of this thread, what I want most days is this:

    I've owned 6. :dunno

    I see a K13000S in my future. I think it is the best, most stable High speed Sport Touring bike ever made.

    Ruby is looking for a new home. I'm not in any real hurry to see her go, but she needs a new home by spring.

    I've owned 4. Against my better judgement, I "want" another: S1000 HP4.

    I thought about the K1300S as a high speed sport tourer. Bought a ZX-14R instead. Not disappointed.

    Pete, I didn't know there were any TDR's in the US. I'm near Seattle. If you are ever in the neighborhood, I'd love to see that bike in person!
