    Triumph or Ducati naked sport.

    Ducati Monster comes to mind.

    I can't vote. Cruiser and standard Street bikes are way too different. Ones like sitting on a horse drawn plow from the 1800's. The other is much closer to riding the horse.

    Street and off road is Adventure or Enduro. I'm out on those. Can't see ever wanting one.

    The retros are amazing looking.

    Your choices are a bit vague and to me it's "to each his own". I prefer a cruiser, but then I often think long distance. If all I would do is ride around town my thinking may differ, and then again as I get older it's the same with cars, a sports car is fun until I have to get in and out a lot.

    I have owned a lot of bikes and just rode my 14 VFR yesterday for a 150 mile solo cycle therapy ride. It was great. Rode my F800R Friday but it was running errands around town.

    I've had 3 before at one time but 2 is the perfect # I don't think there is a perfect 2 bikes and so far, a Honda919 has been my favorite. But I will play -

    Honda F6B for the bagger and road rides or maybe a HD Road King
    Honda Africa Twin with DCT tranny for some off road stuff.

    hill co.
    Yeah, the poll options are a little odd.

    You have the option to vote for an “on road or off road” bike, but not either/or, lol.

    I've looked at the ATM Dukes. I like the look but man are they European. And with the absolute weirdest looking headlight.

    I don't know what they're trying to do. It kinda looks like a medieval robot face.

    Last KTM I sat on was the 390. I'd own it.

    But.....Indian is Polaris. I can't get that out my head when I see an 'Indian' motorcycle. All they did was buy the name. Then make their motorcycles to where it has visual clues to the Indian motorcycle of the past.

    I've looked at a couple of Indian Scouts. Far off it looks Indian. Up close it looks like a Polaris.

    I'm not knocking the company but a Polaris is a Polaris by any other name.

    I tried to edit it but it's not working, don't know what to do.
    I also don't know what I did wrong for the mix up. Clicked the wrong button I guess.
    I contacted TGT but haven't heard back yet

    Don't worry about it. You'd have to list way too much stuff.

    There's Cruisers, dual sport, sport, standard, supermoto, touring, sport touring, mini and then styles like trackers, bobbers, scramblers, cafe racers, and Brat bikes.

    It's just that I found Sport and Cruiser being usually opposites, same with Stock and Custom. No biggie, I defined my preference in my post.

    I've owned a Triumph, Yamaha and Honda. IMO the Honda was the best by far and the fastest I've ridden. I've rode a HD several times and was not impressed at all. With that said I would love to own a completely stock 1965/66 Sportster if one even exist any more that wasn't out of reach cost wise.

    Problem is it makes me look dumber than I really am and I don't need any help in that department.

    You're not the first to have problems posting, so don't take it to heart. It's certainly a good topic in my book, even though it can be hotly debated. I have my preferences, and others have theirs. Motorcycles will always be part of my life and lifestyle.
