After much thought I have been able to put together a list and accept the Challenge.
I shall not give the bikes a certain day of the week as you just never know when the need will arise.
I will begin with my wish list and end with my current rides.
Bike One: Honda Z50 Monkey or a CT70, I Just can't make up my mind.
Or the CT70
Bike 2: 1986 Yamaha SRX6, the high school fantasy that I should have bought.
Bike 3: 1960's BMW R25, 26 or 27. White or Black, doesn't really matter.
Bike 4: 1996 Ducati M900 Monster, If the dealer had done test rides I might of bought it... A 2011 Monster 796 in satin silver would also do.
Now for my Current bikes, as I could never part with them.
Bike 5: The newest in the garage, 2009 Kymco Xciting R250i.
Bike 6: Lets get dirty, 2009 BMW G650X Country. It deserved more than a 3 year run...
Bike 7: Last but by no means least. 1996 BMW R850r. Every time I ride the bike I'm reminded of just how much I love it. It's not perfect and maybe that's why I love it so, or maybe it's just that my body is so familiar with it.
I get the thought every so often that I don't really need 3 bikes and that I should sell it, but a short ride later those thoughts are distant memory's.
I like a lot of bikes, but none stick in my mind like these.
See you on the road.

Awesome list of bikes you have there.
That little Z50 or Ct70 would be a hoot to scoot around on. A lot of fun packed into a small nimble bike.
Thank you for arising to the challenge.
That is really a rather eclectic list. You can even say that about the list of current bikes. I remember riding a CT70 back when I was in middle school and immediately wanted to get a job to get one (never did).
Ah, so that's what you were clearing a place for in the garage.
I can tell you put some thought into the seven bikes. You have a bike for nearly all seasons or reason to ride.
@Trobairtiz, Glad you like the list. The little bikes would be a lot of fun.
@RichardM, Thank You. My fascination with the CT 70 my have something to do with seeing some cute girls riding them in my youth...
@Circle Blue, Yes the scooter needed some room. I had planned to introduce it to the blogging world sooner, but have had some fatal computer problems. Soon though.
