If you live where the climate allows for year-round motorcycle riding bliss, I hate you! 
Weather is starting to wind down here, already had some days below 10c. I'm still riding, but I know the day is coming soon where I'll have to store my baby for her first winter. I've posted about it before, but I'll leave a few pics here:

It's a Yamaha FZ6R, looks very sporty and the inline 4 sounds nice and racey (at least from the rider's point of view - the exhaust is very quiet). It's my first and I couldn't be happier with it and my experiences riding it so far. Has been really easy to learn on, seems very forgiving and although it's a 600, it's quite tame. Fast enough to get into trouble/stay fun for a long time, but not crazy at all. And it's comfortable too! Done a number of 10-12 hour days on it and pleased with the results.
I heard the "dragon" is a nice little road south of the border, gotta check that out next summer.
