Money aside - if you could have any production bike, which would you own?
To make it a little more specific, there are some restrictions :
-the bike would be provided for free but could be your only bike
-you would be responsible for insurance and fuel
-you would be responsible for maintenance and storage
-you would have to keep the bike for at least five years
-you could have any bike - it doesn't have to be a brand new model
Adding restrictions makes an HP4 or a 1299 a little less compelling as an obvious first choice.
For me I would go
BMW S 1000 R in red. The bike provides all of the power I could ever need, it's comfortable enough for long-distancing riding or commuting and it's perfectly adequate for the occasional trackday. For me, this is the perfect
dream bike. In contrast the Triumph Speed Triple is archaic without any of the sophisticated rider-aids that are quickly becoming the norm in the motorbike industry. I see the Triumph Speed Triple as a "muscle car..." - brute force but without sophistication and I believe the S 1000 R would be a great long-term ride.
