This is the Battle of the Roadsters and Hooligan bikes.  Because there are so many, you get 3 votes of the top ones that you'd strongly consider buying.   Feel free to list your reasons or discuss merits and deficiencies based on your own parameters.

My first choice, the K1300R, isn't on the list- therefore this poll is not valid.

Speed Triple tops my list...I still cringe when I walk into the shop and look at the spot where I used to park my 09. Oh well, sitting close by is my Multi and that reminds me how uncomfortable the Trip got after a few hundred miles.

Felt compelled to vote for the 2 I already own, but this is the segment that appeals to me most so I'm interested in a solid 75% of the list with a few being bikes I plan to own at some point (new or used) like the XR1200R  Cool

Guzzi V7 - It's all about the sound
Aprilia Tuono V4R - I'm in love with V4's
Bimota Tesi 3D - I can't explain it. I love it.

The Griso is beautiful.
I feel like I'm sitting on top of the front tire on a Ducati Hyper. Stupid fun.
The Scrambler was the only bike I ever regretted selling.

All are air (oil) cooled. All are relatively simple,reliable and ooze charm and character with tons o' fun.

+1. Right now I'm gonna say Tuono, Monster and Speed Triple because they're all dead sexy. Ask me tomorrow and you're likely to get an entirely different answer.

Aren't we missing some KTMs?

I was under the impression that KTM is no longer bringing Superdukes or Dukes to the US.  Am I wrong?

You're right but the SVs aren't coming in either. The SMT might be a good fit for this group.

Well it's not an exact science.  Lol  The SMT was edited into my other poll on mega-motards.

Not an exact science? But we've grown to expect perfection from you!

But yeah, there are a few bikes that could end up in either group. I mean, "Motard" and "Hooligan" are almost synonymous.

KTM Dukes added.  

By Motards I meant the big Adventure bikes.  I put the Motard-Motards here and the Motard-Tourers there. Bigsmile
