man there are so many magazine reviews of this exact question right now on the newsstands I would go read up and see what some of the opinions are.
ZX-10 was a big hit, but have proven to have a couple small problems that hurt their reputation.
GSXR 1000 supposedly a great bike, and you see them everywhere you go - makes me wonder how much the financing options and "gixxer" following impact their sales more than superiority over other bikes.
CBR 1000 - never heard anything bad about them, definately has the reliability factor being a honda.
R1, what can I say - they have been a top contender for a while now, and are seriously making up ground against the GSXR's in the way of popularity.

just look in my sig.....awesome all around bike. I've read tons of articles on bike shootouts, and the R1 always comes out on top. I sat on the R1 before I bought my R6, and it was so unbelievably comfortable, even more so than my R6! I definately would've opted for the R1 if I had the $$$. Kinda glad I didn't though because of the minor misfortunes I've had lately
