Your favorite bike 6 Months, 3 Weeks ago

This seems to be a day of asking opinions, so here's one for you guys. Except for the Roadie (my current love), what do you consider to be your favorite bike up to now? Mine would be the Yamaha '82 XV920. That sucker was black and all business. I still miss it. Had to sell it when I lost my job years ago and had to make a house payment.

Toss up, My 1979 Suzuki GSL 650 low rider was a great bike. I would be willing to bet someone up in Wisconsin is still riding it around. 6 speed tranny with gear indicator, 4 cylinder 4 stroke. It was a bike ahead of its time. 2000 Honda Shadow Sabre... it was an 1100. Great bike... Great Bike!  Just needed a little more bottom end and I would still have it. I like the Road star also. It a fun bike to ride.

1976 Liberty Edition Sportster XLCH. I had it in the late '70's. It saw 120mph tooooo many times and that wasn't it's top end, just mine.

Man this liking picking the best, oh, can't say that!
I love the Roadie and I had a 78 Yamaha XS750 that was superb but my hat goes off to my 1974 Honda 450. I commuted on it, toured much of the Western US over about 6 years and all I did was tuneups and oil changes. Like always I wanted something bigger and faster. Wish I had it back for around town. Amazing bike for the time and VERY amazing when they first got here in the mid-sixties, DOHC vertical twins were unheard of.

Maybe my favorite all time bike was the first one. A !966 CL77 305 Honda scrambler. Rode it to work, rode it in the dirt (actually thought the thing was a dirt bike) and took the lights off and raced it on dirt tracks on the week end. The bike seemed to fix its self overnight when minor things happened. At the time couldn't imagine wanting a faster or bigger bike, wow, how things change.
