Do you mean best as in better or favourite? The GS is by far the most accomplished bike I've ever owned, best build quality, good at everything and most reliable (so far anyway). I miss my 888 at the moment purely because it was just stunning and pulled a crowd everywhere it went, and I miss the Buell purely because of all my mates still have them :(
Finally back on a GS :D
