For me there aren't any. Had I never ended up buying a Hawk GT later in life I would have answered this thread instantly with that as my choice. Nothing before or after the Hawk GT would truly qualify for me in an honest answer to this question with one exception. That is why I placed a deposit on my 2013 CB1100 long before they ever reached our shores.
The one side note that I would add to my post is this: There were a couple of times in the past where I could have obtained a really nice, original example of a blue-green 1970 Honda CB350 like the one my dad bought new if I had really tried to stretch to make it happen.
Such opportunities are now long gone as prices on those old CB350's have risen quite a bit over the past few years. While I would love to have one of those motorcycles and would surely enjoy it for what it is, I can't truthfully say that I will forever wish I had bought one. I'm actually perfectly happy with just the CB1100.*
*My apologies for the boorishly predictable answer, lol.
