Neat thread.
Still miss my '83 GS1100e. Possibly my all-time favorite. Rode that bike everywhere, through L.A. rush hour traffic, through all kinds of weather. Comfy, gobs of power, great looking, and bulletproof. Ultimately traded it for a POS '66 Mustang...color me stoopid.

Another big fave was my '05 FZ1. Much of the same attraction as the GS1100, just in a more modern package. Modded the crap out of that bike. Regretted selling that the moment it happened, but just didn't trust myself to be "sane" on it anymore. Sold it to a kid who traveled 300 miles from Arizona to pick it up. Still looked like new at 9 years old.

Though not necessarily an impressive favorite, I'll always have a soft spot for my '12 Bonneville. Loved that bike. It did everything decently, was a blast to work on, had a never-ending list of aftermarket stuff available, but just didn't necessarily do anything remarkably well.
