Heated garage and a pocket full of cash

So you've got a heated garage, a CB 1100 and enough cash and space for four more current production bikes, what you going to choose? I would choose bikes quite different from one another which could cover all types of riding. My choice would be:

1). KTM 690 - light weight, fast reving, fun on the twisties.

2). Indian Scout - laid back cruiser with sporty engine.

3). Triumph Thruxton - got to have a cafe racer.

4). Yamaha V Max - nothing else like it.

Good choices Paul.

I would go for a Scout also and a Motus, Suzuki DR650 and an old air head BMW.
I'm not familiar with the Motus but just seen the Site and it looks interesting. I considered the R9T BM but thought it was too close to the CB. The DR 650 would have been my sixth choice had I allowed myself one.

I could go with the KTM 690...would also like the Triumph Street Twin...wouldn't mind a Royal Enfield Bullet...and, hmmm, what else?.....and I'd like to try the Yamaha xs900....but, alas, my pocket isn't full of cash! Have to stay content with the CB and the KLR650.
 
1. Honda F6B

2. Moto Guzzi Stornello with chrome tank

3. Harley Davidson XR 1200

4. Something that Evel Knievel owned and jumped with.
 
1. RSV4 RF
2. Harley Low Rider S
3. Triumph Thruxton R
4. KTM Adventure 1190R

That's probably in order from most to least wanted....
 
The Interceptor would certainly be #1, but the other 3 are in no particular order.

Honda Interceptor 800 ($12,500)
BMW R1200GS ($16,500!)
BMW K1600GT ($21,500!!)
Ducati XDiavel S ($23,000!!!)

You can probably tell that I'm a big fan of open swingarms. And with almost $75,000 bucks worth of hardware, you're darn right my garage would be heated!
 
My $.02:

BMW R1200RT
Ducati Multistrada
Harley Road Glide
Yamaha R1M

This is from my ideal garage collection.
 
My list would vary depending upon the time you ask; but:

1400 Eldorado from Moto Guzzi (or an Indian Chief)
Keep my Griso
Keep my XR650L, but since money is no object, may upgrade her with an African Twin)
Keep the CB1100
