I rode the K1600GTL and it is a great bike. I would have preferred it to my FLHTK, but my wife said the Harley was more comfortable and I really wanted to buy American.
Mine are not in that list. I was really considering the Victory HardBall before I bought my Street Bob. Now the Street Bob is being sold for a '17 SGS. No other thoughts on that one.
I would love to add a nice sporty bike especially the MV Augusta Brutale 800... Brutale 800
I am still thinking of a Triumph Rocket III. You get this stock! :
Triumph made certain no one would be left wanting for more cubes — or more power. The factory crammed a massive, 2,294 cc mill into the frame — yes, you read that right, the family plant is bigger than many four-wheel cages on the road today with almost 2.3 liters of yummy goodness. This water-cooled, in-line three banger runs a tad oversquare with a 101.6 mm bore and 94.3 mm stroke.
The Rocket III triple cranks out an astounding 163 pound-feet at a low, 2,750 rpm, backed up by 148 horsepower, and it produces 90% of that torque at an even two grand. Triumph doesn’t miss the opportunity to point out that this is more torque at idle than most superbikes manage to produce.
There is a steady stream of them going into the indy shop next door to my office. Some guy just paid him over $10k to fix up an early 70's Yamaha thumper.
Grab a copy of Motorcycle Classics magazine sometime.

For sure! Price shop some SOHC 750 Hondas especially the early ones-holy cow...
