Not a bad list, not a bad list at all.

My garage isn't big enough to support all of those sweet bikes.

About the CB750: I take it the oil tank is in the seat? Anyone know if this is a total loss system? Where's the battery? Love the hard lines (copper?) connecting the oil tank to the pump. I wish the CB rolled off the line like that; nice and simple (just would take away all the fun in customizing it to look that way  ;D)

seems more like a garage museum or collector's list than a riders list....

Depends on whose garage it is.  I'd ride every last one of them if they were mine. :)

true true... and i agree that everyone of those bikes are amazing......
i guess if i was getting at that if i were compiling 10 of anything i would want to cover the entire spectrum of the category...
toss in a dirtbike or enduro bike, a supermoto, a cruiser....

 I'd say maybe 3-4 of those would make my list. Not that many of the others arent great bikes but if I could only have 10 my list would top off with a Triumph Hurricane.
 
 If your garage was going to have a Harley, that's certainly a good pick.

Actually most of the bikes on the list would not make my list
as I still have my image to protect.  :o
