Your "motorcycle mistress" for the day-what bike are you thinking of today?

If you guys are anything like me you seemingly find a different bike every day to lust after or that piques your interest. Of course, it changes daily so there’s this never ending list of bikes you’d love to try out or potentially own one day.
So, what’s the flavor of the day? Why?
Post a pic of what you’re thinking of or what bike has caught your eye. It might be cool to get a thread going and just see where everyone’s head is. If you change your mind tomorrow, post up new pic.
Right now, I’m in an “old school” kind of mood.
This bike popped up on CL and I just keep thinking about how much I’d love to hop on it and take a cruise.
**interesting, my pic doesn't show up unless I'm logged in**
To anyone that thinks I'm crazy, there really is a pic there, I swear!

I've always like road bikes like the C14's and FJRs and such, however, this is the bike that has my attention these days.
I think one of these as equipped as shown and with another topbox and a few basic farkles would suit this rider's needs quite well. I'm likin' this bike.....

Without a doubt this is my next bike! I am in love with this bike. Not like the kind you marry I mean real love!

I love my multistrada.. a new one is probably the only think I'd consider replacing it with in a while.
However I'd love to have this in the garage beside her.

Nice choice. I haven't lusted after one of those in a while, more like decades for a Guzzi with that configuration, but not daily.
Right now, this would be the flavor today.

I've been lusting after another Triumph. Lately it's been the Street Triple.
Honestly, I've even got my eye on a TT600, it seems like it would provide much of the economy of my 650R with a bit more HP on tap when I want it.

Ninja 1000 has taken over the every-7-second thought position. Haven't even ridden one yet, but the look is awesome and all the reviews seem to say it's an excellent bike.

I really like the ZX14R. I almost bought instead of my Concours. I love the way it feels. I might go ride one at Mid-Ohio this year.

Recently saw one of these at Riders' Hill a few weeks ago. Maybe in a few years when I see one in the resale market....
