You cross the Triumph off your list, Chuck?
VFRs... really nice bikes, but based on recent personal experience, don't try to work on it.
I concur with the vanilla sentiment. In my experience, most Honda vehicles (cars & bikes) tend to be that way. Pleasantly predictable... to the point of being boring.
The fit and finish on Hondas tends to be excellent. They're very well-made. But man, if/when something needs fixed, it's like everything is tied into everything else. To remove the throttle cables on the CBR I had to remove almost all of the forward bodywork, in order to get the tank cover off, so that I could remove the airbox lid, so that I could remove the upper fuel injector rail, so I could remove the lower airbox lid, then I had to lift the fuel tank so I could remove the throttle body venturis from the lower airbox, so I could remove the lower airbox, so I could finally get to the damned throttle cables. And that's ignoring the hijinks I had to pull with the wiring harness to get it out of the way. Keep in mind... half the bodywork was gone anyway because of the wreck. It still took half a day just to get in there. Oh, and Honda bodywork is a bloody Rubik's cube. Where Ducati uses simple fasteners that can be unscrewed, Honda has a bunch of plastic snaps and interlocking edges.
I don't want to change the oil on that 600RR, either. The filter is hidden back behind the header, and I have to remove the coolant reservoir to even get to it from the side. That'll be fun.
So yeah... incredible engineering, but you don't want to work on it yourself. Even if I don't have to sell the CBR for financial reasons, I don't think it'll be the long-term trackbike. I'd rather have another Duc. They may be cantankerous and high-maintenance, but they're designed to be opened up and worked on.
Anyway... not meant to be a total downer on Hondas. If you're willing to just take it to the shop and let them service it, they're great riding machines, the fit and finish is excellent, and they're very reliable.
