OK, so two of the bikes I've owned in the past have shown up in this thread. Hoosier Bob brings up the Nighthawk S (great bike; put 80,000 miles on mine on two different engines), then H2Oskeefreek posts a picture of the KZ440 I used to own (except, of course, mine was red). Another great bike; a bit buzzy and I hated replacing chains, but it lasted me for 40,000 miles.
I ride an ST1100 now. Given a choice, I'd dearly love to get my hands on a Yamaha GTS1000. Never seen one in person, never talked to anyone who had one, but the technology has fascinated me since I first read about it.
