R1.
Not for me but admittedly not a way-off pick psychologically anyhow.
I suspect the 12R isn't among their choices (anyone had the 12 picked for them?)

When filling out via wishful thinking...
600cc Sportbike
You scored 9 moxie, 5 zeal, and 2 pomp!
You are a squid. Your bike is a 600cc Japanese Sportbike. Take your pick, it really doesn't matter, since you're going to wad it. You are the primary source of extra bits of fairing plastic on eBay.
When you're riding in the mountains, you have a hard time keeping up with that Olde Pharte on a Triumph Thruxton without blowing the centerline in the twisties and going WFO on every straight. (You're not a bad rider, but you're just not as good as you think you are.)
On a hot day, you're likely to be seen weaving through highway traffic at warp speed, wearing sneakers and a t-shirt blowing up your back. (WRONG!)
The good news for you is that this is a temporary phase in your riding career. You will either (a) buzzsplat or (b) become more acutely conscious of your own mortality after a few minor but eye-openingly lucky crashes. Take it to the track. You'll live longer.
When being a tad more realistic....
Yamaha FJR1300
You scored 3 moxie, 10 zeal, and 1 pomp!
You have the characteristics of a master street rider. On the way to work, your love for riding sometimes leads you to take the long way. The 50-miles-of-back-roads long way. You live for the perfect road, and plan vacations around riding.
You need a bike that can handle your addiction to the twisties as well as comfortably carry two on a weekend trip through the mountains. Your bike is the FJR1300. Can I borrow it someday?
After a little thought (very little)... I realized I fell somewhere in between. A slow old poser on a ZX-10R.

This guy or gal that put this test together must at least have an interst in a Harley dealership. I got tagged for an 883 too or possibly a softtail. While I do own a softtail as well as the 12 (no disrespect for those that may have one) but I wouldn't ride an 883, I'd rather drive the 76 dodge dart like zxfingyz...

You're addicted to speed, but have the knowledge and experience to match. Although you like to win, you don't really care so much about competing with others as much as competing with yourself.
Your bike is the Yamaha YZF R1. Given how easily the rear wheel on this beast spins up coming out of turns, it is fortunate that you constantly work to improve your skills. (I've seen more R1s crash at track days than any other bike.)
It was a close decision with the Suzuki GSXR1000, but your personality seemed a bit more R1-ish. (But hey, I could be wrong. Its only a silly test.)

I am right there with you RedElk....LOL
That is funny...Maybe since I already "Take it to the track. You'll live longer. " is why I do not consider myself a squid!!!
But they did get the 600cc a little WRONG.....Boring!!!!

I think to much pomp gets you the 600. Or maybe more moxie than zeal.
Maybe we need a test of our own.
