RE: test yourself
Here are my results:
Ducati ST4s
You scored 4 moxie, 7 zeal, and 7 pomp!
You love riding, simply for the sake of riding. On the way to work, you sometimes find yourself taking the long way. The 50-miles-of-back-roads long way. Your mastery came about as a side effect from your love of the sport, although to be honest, you originally got into it because you thought a motorcycle would make you look cool.
You need a bike that can handle your addiction to the twisties as well as reasonably carry two on a weekend trip through the mountains. Because you are a bit image-conscious and have a touch of ego, your bike is a Ducati. A practical Ducati, but a Ducati nonetheless.
I think that's actually about right too. Although I can ride well and look good on a cbr or gsx-r as well, hehe.

RE: test yourself
Ducati Monster
You scored 3 moxie, 1 zeal, and 7 pomp!
You're a bit of a snob, but otherwise well-adjusted.
Your bike is the Ducati Monster. Sexy. Powerful. Agile. Italian style in a badass matte black.
Of all the test takers, you are most likely to have been hoping for your result to indicate that your bike is a Harley. It isn't. Sorry. You show the potential to become a superior rider, and you need a bike that encourages and rewards your learning. The Harley will just hold you back, and you'll have nagging feelings that something is wrong.
The Suzuki SV series is also a good bet, but it wouldn't appeal to you. Far too Common.

RE: test yourself
Yamaha YZF R1
You scored 7 moxie, 7 zeal, and 1 pomp!
You're addicted to speed, but have the knowledge and experience to match. Although you like to win, you don't really care so much about competing with others as much as competing with yourself.
Your bike is the Yamaha YZF R1. Given how easily the rear wheel on this beast spins up coming out of turns, it is fortunate that you constantly work to improve your skills. (I've seen more R1s crash at track days than any other bike.)
It was a close decision with the Suzuki GSXR1000, but your personality seemed a bit more R1-ish. (But hey, I could be wrong. Its only a silly test.)

RE: test yourself
wtf... im not a squid!
You are a squid. Your bike is a 600cc Japanese Sportbike. Take your pick, it really doesn't matter, since you're going to wad it.
You are the primary source of extra bits of fairing plastic on eBay.
When you're riding in the mountains, you have a hard time keeping up with that Olde Pharte on a Triumph Thruxton without blowing the centerline in the twisties and going WFO on every straight. (You're not a bad rider, but you're just not as good as you think you are.)
On a hot day, you're likely to be seen weaving through highway traffic at warp speed, wearing sneakers and a t-shirt blowing up your back.
The good news for you is that this is a temporary phase in your riding career. You will either (a) buzzsplat or (b) become more acutely conscious of your own mortality after a few minor but eye-openingly lucky crashes.
Take it to the track. You'll live longer.
- WTF??? lolz and it has apicture of a f4i fairings.. thats ****ed up man! lolz

RE: test yourself
Yamaha FJR1300
You scored 1 moxie, 8 zeal, and 2 pomp!
You have the characteristics of a master street rider. On the way to work, your love for riding sometimes leads you to take the long way. The 50-miles-of-back-roads long way. You live for the perfect road, and plan vacations around riding.
You need a bike that can handle your addiction to the twisties as well as comfortably carry two on a weekend trip through the mountains. Your bike is the FJR1300. Can I borrow it someday?
My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:
You scored higher than 18% on moxie
You scored higher than 88% on zeal
You scored higher than 56% on pomp
Sorry I'm a little lazy.
I'd rather a ST 1300 but a Yamaha is better than a Harley. The weird thing is after work my 90 mile commute sometimes turns into a 200 mile 2 tank day. Then it's back to work in the morning. Going to V.I.R. next summer to slide down the track, this test was creapy.
