1990 VTR250, 1985 Nighthawk 700S, 2001 Mazda Miata (sold), and my girlfriend's Forester XT (turbo). Blue is a fabulous color :)

I also have a weakness for sporty blues.  Blue is the new red.
VTR looks to be in really nice shape.  Love the dated splashy graphics.

Blue is nice, but red is still the fastest color

Yay for blue, my NH is blue, and my Avusblau 328i is the best BMW color ever IMO. My red Miata doesn't quite fit in, but at least the race seats are blue :).

Love the XT. Is it on STI springs?

No modifications for the Forester.... yet. I am trying to convince my lady to get an exhaust so we can hear that boxer rhythm. Hers is a 2008, which is the only year the Forester XT came with the STI wheels. It also has blacked out tail lights, smoked healights, a lower/sportier front airdam, and an STI lower front lip. Subaru pimpded ze auto in 2008. Now, the new model looks like a RAV4, and the turbo only comes with an automatic Sad

The VTR really is fun. Sorry to say, but I enjoy it more than the Nighthawk (if I had to pick one). The bike just doesn't feel as old as it is. And it's so light and easy to handle. It's a great bike to ride while I am learning to hang off in the corners, because my body weight affects it more than pretty much any other bike on the road. I think it weighs something like 315 lbs dry. And the splashy 90s graphics are right up my alley. Not everyone's cup o' tea, though.
