I guess the current fave is the one I have now. Same model as the last one, that I had for 12 years. Though the 600 and 750 Gixxers were fun....and the 250. The Hawk was alright too. The Saber took me across the continent multiple times.

The best bike on that list to me is the 1988-1990 GSXR, I have always loved that style!
My very 1st bike when I was 10 years old...damn I miss it, it was such a blast to ride... When I turned 16 and got my full M licence I got this bike...moved to Europe and my brother crashed it Then this was my next bike... I moved back to Canada in 1990 and bought this... Then my brother got killed in Europe on the RD350 a year later and I was so traumatized I ended up selling the ZX7 in 1991 and took a break from bikes until 2012 (21 years) later when I bought my Ducati which I still have but I am currently looking for 1 of these little bullets a 1991 RGV 250, I have always wanted one ever since it came out... Or 1 of these...another 250 The Kawasaki KR-1S top speed is 140 mph...that's a fast 250 lol!

I rode one of those.... This is in the Finch and Weston days when I was running the 750 GSXR...going down Weston where there are lots of cops. Felt small and light, and that's saying something. Felt like my head was over the front wheel. Just rollin' along and figured it's not too bad, only in first gear, not even putting on the power yet. Then looked down at the speedo ...was going over 100. Yikes! Brought it back down quick, turned around and took it back to it's owner. It could get you in trouble fast. Deceptive feeling of speed.
They were both great bikes back then...I really liked the style & they looked mean, it would be cool to paint the current models of those 2 bikes like that retro look!
