Default If you could have only one motorcycle for the next 10 years

What would you pick and why?

Busa or zx14.

I want to do some touring, I like going fast, and I could get my cornering fix with them as well.

I'd go with a Harley XR1200. Comfortable and still sporty enough to have a good time.

Ducati Hypermotard. It's the ONLY bike I want right now. Very comfy, has enough power to get squidly, and easy to ride for commuting back and forth to work.

I agree with him on that one.

If I had to pick one it'd probably be something like a KTM 990 Supermoto. I could do trackdays, commute, it'd be comfortable enough to do some traveling but I don't know how big the tank is. I saw a guy who put a 17 front rim on a GS1150 and did pretty well at JGP on it. I like the older BMW sport/tour bikes too, I don't remember the name right now, it had underseat exhaust.

My 1978 CB750K. its sporty when it needs to be, comfortable ALL DAY with the windshield on it, and its as sure a bet to be there for me as death and taxes. Oh and I just plain love vintage SOHC4 Hondas. they're frikkin undying machines built to last forever.
