Choosing The Right Streetfighter

While a sport bike will
definitely impress on the racetrack, the awkward riding style of
these mean machines make them hard to consider for everyday riding.
That's why many riders prefer the "streetfighter" class, a mix of
sport and street bikes that perform well on the track while also
being easy to ride on the street.
Bikers have more than a few options when it comes to picking a
streetfighter, but some of the best of the bunch are made by
Ducati, KTM and Kawasaki. While a rider can't go wrong with the
Ducati Streetfighter, KTM Super Duke or Kawasaki Z1000, each bike
has its own strengths and weaknesses.
Most riders will probably feel that the Super Duke is the most
comfortable of the bunch, and some may appreciate its eye-catching
and futuristic look. More might appreciate the small price tag and
great fuel economy. While the Super Duke is a great bike for those
who want some power at an affordable price, it does let down when
compared to the Ducati and Kawi on the track.
In terms of pure performance, the Streetfighter outclasses the
Z1000 - but not by much. And since the Z1000 offers a more
comfortable ride, many will compromise a bit on power for
practicality. Still, racing enthusiasts and those who can adjust to
its riding style will likely prefer the Ducati.
The best way for riders to decide between these three great bikes
is to head to a local motorcycle store and try them out for
themselves.
