what street bike for you?
 
I'm curious what street bikes you guys ride most of the time or prefer to ride...

I have an '07 Ninja 250. It's my first bike, I've only ridden about 3000mi on it, it's super fun. Uses almost no gas, still takes off well enough. I'd like to get an R6 Yamaha, but not for a year at least. Got too many other things on the go...like planned mods for my truck.

I was also considering a Honda VTX. Those are sweet looking bikes, and I found a couple good deals, but just have to wait. It would be a great cruiser, but I like sharp handling. I've already got a slow handling truck, need something to balance it out.

hmm, I forgot to add an option for the econo-bikes. they're not really sportbikes or cruisers but you can't make fun of 'em either because they get 65-100mpg depending on rider weight and drive style...

I take that back, they technically do have sport and cruiser 250's so no econo-category necessary.

I'm pretty happy with my SV-1000s over my CBR600rr as far as day to day commuting. I think the SV is technically a sport bike but I consider it a sport-touring as it's comparable to a VFR or superhawk.

I started cutting up my 82 Yamaha XS650 to make a standard wheelbase bobber. Then I started doing stuff to my truck and other projects that paid, I have to get back on that thing in the next couple weeks so I can ride it this spring. There's just something wonderful about the sound of an open pipe twin combined with an uncomfortable riding stance that's worsened by the spine jarring hard tail that I can't get enough of!!

Waiting on a db sticker to put on it, no it isn't diesel, but while I'm passing them, they should be able to read it :lol88:

Rode sportbikes for many years. Now that I am getting older, I think I will get a cruiser next.
