if you want a twin i would say that the new ducati 848 would be awsome and in white they look sexy as hell
now im not the kind of person that likes fully faired bikes but the 848 is crazy and they sound good their relatively cheap (like 11.5k)
and they put out like 130whp and 70ft-lbs
or a suzuki sv1000 with lowers would also make a nice cruiser (i had an sv650 witch is only 70hp instead of the 1000's 110hp, but their so light they are crazy hooligan fun)
or the new triumph street tripple or the old skool speed tripple for those of you that like the naked look
