Streetfighters

Coolbpf · July 16th, 2012, 10:07 PM

So, this is motorcycle related, but I don't think people would want in the general discussion...

My next bike is going to be a streetfighter style, does anyone have any recommendations that I should try to test ride? Thanks

But, it is motorcycle-related.

You should try the kawi er-6n(if you can find one), the ktm super duke, and sv650. Then comeback and tell me how they are because I also want a streetfighter.

try the best street fighter there is.

the ducati streetfighter 848. that thing is absolutely AMAZING. so much torque, it wheelies like its a pedal bike, jumps well and handles tight squeezes amazingly well. if you want a bike to go urban-off-roading, or dicking your way through traffic, thats the bike.

after you take it for a test ride you will really be saddened by the competition. nothing really comes close outside of custom one-offs.

That bike was forged in the heavens by the fist of god. However I was really kinda wanting to pick up a reasonably priced used one (unless my parents get wallet happy for a graduation present). Is it probable that I'll come across a used Ducati badassmobile/streetfighter?

Does the Z1000 fall into the street fighter category? Or is the fact that it has farings prevent it from inclusion?
