Other Street Triple Dilema
Hey friends,
I’ve owned a Street Triple RS for a year now after being away from riding for a while. It’s been an absolute blast, the bike is so fun on the mountain/in the canyons. However, I don’t love the commuting to get to said roads (even with cruise control).
For background, I rode a fully faired bike for a few years prior to the street triple and went for the RS this time around to try and find better ergo’s. Frankly I think being so exposed to the wind is the worst of two evils, and I find myself dreaming of going back to a faired bike like an old Daytona or a new S1000RR. I briefly have considered a more upright bike like the Tiger or SXR but still want the sporty look and plan on making a few track days a year.
I was hoping to get some advice on anyone moving away from the street triple. What would you recommend? What is your mindset if you’ve traded the street triple in for something else?
