What's the bike or bikes that you're lusting over right now, street or track?  Why?

I'll go first. 

I want a track bike so I don't toss the 848 down yet.  I'll still track it, but it's tough to push it b/c I'd be heart broken if/when it goes down

As you can see, I'm not into the litre bikes.  I'm not adept enough to use all that power....yet  [evil]


Ducati 748 (street/track) - Tamburini...too pretty not to ride on the street, needs to be run on the track like all good Ducs [thumbsup]
Ducati 749R (track) - no explanation needed, simply badass
Triumph Daytona 675 (track) - there's a reason it was bike of the year a few years back
Aprilla RS125 (track) - probably could learn the most from riding this.  I still want to check it out over at Eurosport Cycles in Ft Worth
Yamaha R6 or CBR600RR (track) - probably the ideal track bike.  easy parts to find and great performance, and tons of them on the used market

I want a PS with full exhaust, new lighter sealed wheels, BB kit, racing flywheel, rearsets, comfort seat, and some bling accessories (billet).  That's really all I'm "lusting" over...

Those are hot... I remember when AMS had the "hot-rodded" one w/ the 1080 kit and some J. Nash port and polish work on the inside.  That was a sick sounding bike

Ducati 900 SS for me.  I personally like the style and lines of the older models.  Many just look too much alike now, for my taste that is.
For cruising I still like my Roadstar, loads of torque and smooth as hell BUT that Goldwing with heated everything keeps eyeing me....there, I came out. [laugh]

Anything Ducati with a nice exhaust (preferrably Termis) that runs great and has no issues.  No bling or other extras needed.

Oh and the maintenance has to be free of cost.

Ideally, an 848, or one of the new streetfighters coming out 03/2009.
High above the muckey muck...

Streetfighter - it may be the meanest looking thing I have ever seen - In black please.  Probably splatter myself in about 8 minutes, for the street
'09 SC 1000s - now available in black with the full fairing - for the living room
Daytona 675 - for the track (when my wife isn't looking!)

Streetfighter 1098S

1999 996 RS @ AMS (living room) are you kidding me?  

the 2005 Monster 1000S I have will have to make do as a bike I will bring to the track.  It's almost ready.  ;D

would really love a dedicated track bike--848 perhaps (since we're wishing)

Also, those 1100 monsters are looking sweet for the street.   [evil]

Also for the street, I would add a sport tourer--Triumph Sprint 1050, Suzuki HB.
