Does she sleep hanging upside down?

As far as smarty pants comments go, it's gunna be hard dining out in this one, but I'll try not to be rude. Do you guys throw these baits out just for fun ??

Small bore stratospheric redline bikes like the CB1 and Bandit 400 are a hoot.  Feel like you're doing a 100 at 50.

My pick would be the early Triumph 885 Hinckley models, in particular, the Thunderbird Sport.  These bikes were pretty well bullet proof and over engineered beyond belief.  Many owners have well over 100k on the motors and still going strong.  Triumph certainly got it right in their rebirth and produced a great motorcycle.  I enjoyed my TBS for a number of years but the riding position and my ever increasing friendship with arthritis caused us to part ways.  Of course room for a pearl white Bassa in the herd certainly had some input also..............

Really cannot disagree with the early Hinkley triumphs. I know a couple of owners of the very early bikes, and they are keepers. The " Hurricane" pipes look great, bet they sound good too!

Kawasaki ZRX1100 and ZRX1200, which are actually through-backs to the 80's KZ1000R Eddie Lawson Replica.
