This could be worse that Noggy the Nogster new bike quest!!!!!
You need another 10 pages :lol
seriously though a triple seems like the best compromise..............the thou was a bit too much than I needed....too much weight, didn't need the crazy top end yet paid the price with weight, my twin has character and is cool but at times with overtakes it isn't quite enough..................Triples then would seem perfect although ive yet to try one
if you don't like Triumph Speed Triples then there is of course the Tracer as has been mentioned.....seems the natural way to go...high up, fairing, quick without being heavy...............but after such a bling gen 1 youd need to factor in a suspension upgrade for the Tracer straight away.
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
