None at the moment.
Had a Honda CB500 for three years, sold it when I went to the US.
bought a GSXR 600 05 in the US had it for a year.
The next might be a supermotard ala Husaberg, KTM or a GSXR again.

Me Kawasaki ZX9R (in black - same as my R44 R2)
& FZR 400 RRSP for the track
My examiner BMW 1100 something or other
My previous chief pilot Ducatti 998 I think
Even the CAA helicopter test pilot showed up at Farnborough on his bike.
On a similar line to throttles, what about kids like me who had "soap box" carts so we always operate the yaw pedals the wrong way round?

My baby, the 2005 883. I know, I'm old. Yeah, I might love a ZX-14, but there really is nowhere to ride such a beast around here. The Sporty is nimble, it's quick, it's fun, and it doesn't encourage me to play boy-racer on the street. Plus, NOBODY asks me, "Is that a Suzu...err, Hon...err, Yam...ahh...what is that?"
