V-Max, tried it and definitely would not love to own.

Goldwing is next on the list.

Hell, Dodge Tomahawk, for that matter.

Speaking of riding in straight lines, what about the Tron Light Cycle?

They're all so odd, I'd like to see what they do.

I'm not a metric cruiser fan but the Yamaha Bolt does intrigue me. Besides that, Roland Sands has posted some pictures of one being reworked in his shop.

My friend Burt is the 3rd owner of his Vincent. It was give to him from his father who got it from his father who bought it new in 1951. He's riding it around America to raise money for the Shriners Children's Hospital, you can learn more here, www.facebook.com/VincentAroundAmerica

I was going to be given an opportunity to ride it but reason set in and if anything happened while I was on it, I wouldn't want to even ponder what it would cost to fix. This is a complete side not to the thread. I'll blame coffee and boredom at work.

Rode my old boss's 990 on the street with some very mild knobbies and it was a bit too much power for tires like that on the road.  Fun bike though, very comfortable for the 25 miles I rode it.

for me, 08 Hypermotard S (would like to own)  Panigale to try, def. don't want to own (due to insurance cost)  Smiley

rode one once. somewhere between a religious experience and utter insanity. the power was like a switch. an angry, noisy switch.
