New MV Agusta F4
2nd choice would be a ZX10, 3rd would be some kind of Ducati, 4th the Aprilla even though its considered a track bike and far to harsh for normal roads.
The BMW gets rave reviews but I'm not excited about it at all, I don't get excited at cars with tonnes of electronic trickery either. Gixxer and Fireblade like the BMW are great all round bikes but I'm just not interested for some reason. The R1 got lots of rave reviews about its engine, but otherwise it apparently is not a great bike, its slow steering, odd handling, 09 model had a pink frame that just looked odd. Engine is apparently smooth at constant revs but vibrates on acceleration, 1st gear is too tall to be practical, the list goes on, yet it did win most group tests last year
Just goes to show you can't trust everything you read. Anyway it will be a while before I go near such big bikes, I see something like a KTM Duke 690r or a Triumph Daytona 675, or a ZX6 in my garage before then.
