Got my August edition of UK Bike mag this arvo. Article on the Top 40 most fun bikes (in the last 20 years).

Essential Fun Criteria judged:
1) Charisma
2) Controllability
3) Thrust to weight ratio
4) Durability
5) Sound (?)

Bandit 1200 came in at 35, " First bike to wheelie just by twisting the throttle; fun in any language"

1st is the Triumph Street Triple / Street Triple R.

6 Euro's and 2 Brits in the top 10!
Clearly sales or reliability had no influence Rolling Eyes
