I believe the Versys

My Sprint isn't evil, more like, just a wee bit cranky now and then.

1050 Triples are more like... passive agressive.

A 2001 Bandit1200S doesn't seem evil. 100HP and 70 torques?
Pretty tame if you asked me, and my Harley riding co-workers would be surprised at those numbers.
I think it's the idiot and his right wrist that makes the bike evil.

To be honest, I'm not sure if the bike itself is evil. But, it makes me do things I have never done on other bikes before. I've started to intentionally bring the front wheel off the ground and spin up the rear tire on purpose lately.

Motorcycles are mechanical objects. How can they be evil?

So you're saying you can't tell if your bike is evil, or just naughty?
