My 2nd gen 1200 Ducati Multistrada...
It's fast,160 HP, handles like a sportbike, its as comfortable as a tourer - even two up, nimble around town, and gets 42 - 44 mpg. You can load it with gear for a month or take it to the track and embarrass gixers. And, it doesn't do too bad off road.
With a set TKC's it'll do anything a GS will do. I've had it a mile deep in the Utah canyon lands and atop a 14,000 ft mountain at Pikes Peak and mount Evans. I jump on it for a quick errand into town and spend the next week on a 1500 mile adventure.
The multi won the pikes peak hill climb 3 years in a row and set new records each consecutive year and it's been used to tour around the world.
Yep, I love my collection of bikes but I truly could live with just the Multistrada its a real "do anything" bike
Ugh. Really? Self edifying posts are such a waste of our time. Bla bla. I have 20 bikes.
FYI
Nobody cares.

Meet me at Jennings GP where I will bring a GSXR and we will see who gets embarrassed

I am 67 and I have to consider what I can continue to ride comfortably. I am going to actively thin the herd this spring. Not sure at this point what I'll keep but the heavy stuff is all going to go.
Lots of fellows my age go to trikes and I've decided when I can't continue on two wheels I'll go to 4 not three (sports car). Not to say that a trike is wrong for others.
The CTX is certainly in the running for most comfortable motorcycle ever. It has such a low center of gravity without having to sit on the ground. My buddy and I switched bikes one day and I rode it for about 160 miles. Great bike that keeps up with everyone. My buddy even wanted to lay it down to see if he could pick it back up by himself, while I was there. We laid it down super carefully on cardboard boxes. Then he was able to pick it up by himself. It is that low center of gravity.
