Naked Street Fight

Bike magazine (Dec issue) has a shoot out between the Street Triple, Hornet, FZ6, GSR, and the Z750. Again the Street Triple came out on top with the Hornet a close second. The magazine said “Its two bikes in one - the safe, sensible option one second, brain - out hooligan machine the next”
It left me wondering, what percentage of the two will I become ?

I sold my 05 gsxr to get my street triple to 'slow me down a bit' I'm afraid it hasn't worked in the first 300 miles so I don't think it's going to when she's run in. It will stop me from doing 100+mph on A roads but I think 0-80mph is probably worse so far than on the gixer

thats good to hear lol. itll be a good sensible bike for me to begin on and an evil street machine once i improve haha. now i know for sure i made the right choice.

i wonder if i could get my hands on that mag. here in the states. sadly if i can it'll end up costing me like 15 bucks....
