10. XJR1300 (1999-present): 4.21/5
The Suzuki GSX1400's main rival in the retro bike stakes, this big Yamaha is another bang-for-the-buck naked. It's not as fast or powerful as you'd expect with only 105hp but it'll still embarrass sports cars at the lights, so there. However, the 1251cc inline-four (like the GSX, dating back to the '80s in lineage) is a wellspring of torque, 80lbft to be precise, pulling effortlessly from jogging pace and hitting 140mph if you so demand. Besides the point-and squirt-giggles, the XJR's charm lies primarily in its perfect bygone-era looks.
