Bro... I test rode a Street Triple R and it was phucking great. The sound and agility of it was way more than I expected. The speed and torque was amazing as well. I'd get one if it was around the same price as the competition. It's literally 2-3k or so more than the MT09, XSR900, Z900, etc... but it does offer a nicer TFT display, rider aids, etc, but still...

I didn't test ride a Street Triple but was juggling the same questions. Best price I could find for a 2018 Street Triple R/RS was going to be $10k+ OTD. Wound up buying a 2019 XSR900 for $8k OTD with no miles on it.
I may get a Street Triple in the future still, but for now I'll take the reliability of Japanese bikes.*Left Handed Crew*

Hey guys,
What is your opinions on keeping a smaller bike to hoon around in and also have a bigger bike for spirited riding? For instance, let's say your in the market for a FZ07, but you currently have a CBR 250/300. Would you keep the smaller bike or sell it?☼ "Don't stop. Never quit. No excuses." ☼

Thanks man. It appears I just purchased your dream bike.
I ended up buying a 2017 FZ07 fully modded with a full Yoshi exhaust, CRG levers, fender delete, LED tail light, LED marker lights and LED headlight yesterday for an insane deal. It only has 3500 miles on it and is in mint condition.
I am gonna keep my CBR. Pics coming later on. I gotta clean it from the ride home.Last edited by eternalone423; 01-22-2020 at 11:30 AM.

Hey man. Yours was really nice. I kinda wanted one with the highlighter wheels but I couldn't pass mine up. I was able to get it for $4400 modded with just 3500 miles. He practically gave it away to me considering a full Yoshi exhaust is over $700 dollars alone. Not even mentioning the other mods such as fender delete and cyclops LED headlight bulb.
I ordered Shogun frame sliders and tank grips last night to add to it. I'll add spools to it in few weeks and I should be good for the next season.
I looked into Hordpower and his airbox/flash. 500 bucks for a potential 10hp gain? That's not bad at all. It sounds expensive but 10hp on a bike is a ton of power added. I see that airbox poking out in your pic. NiceeeeeLast edited by eternalone423; 01-23-2020 at 06:32 AM.

You got a killer deal on that bike! Mine was a '16 with 4500 miles. Sold it for $5000.
And here I thought my XSR900 was going to be a big jump in power...
I'd love to test ride an MT-10 at some point. Couldn't imagine a 2nd or 3rd gear pull on that thing.
Def post some pics if you pull the trigger!*Left Handed Crew*

Sup guys,
Last night I got a chance to see and sit on the new Ducati Streetfighter V4 at an official unveiling down in ATL. What an amazing looking bike in person. It’s actually bigger than I thought it would be in person. It has a taller seat height compared to my FZ07 but not by much. This bike looks amazing in person!
208hp with 90ft lbs of torque. 234hp with a full exhaust upgrade and tune. Pure insanity. 25k purchase price though... lol☼ "Don't stop. Never quit. No excuses." ☼

Right. It's super nice but the $/hp is not worth it to me. I'd get the Z-H2 instead if I'm looking to buy bleeding edge bike tech brand new in hyper naked form.
My buddy wants to put down the $1k deposit for the Ducati Streetfighter. I keep telling him to get a Monster instead if he truly wants to get into the world of motorcycles as his first bike and is dead on a naked Ducati. The Streetfighter is way too much bike for a beginner rider.Last edited by eternalone423; 01-31-2020 at 11:50 AM.

San Diego has perfect riding weather year round, sucks that it's basically MA west. Liberal as fuk with high taxes.
Wanted to get my tires swapped out but this virus crap is going on so spring is pretty much shot.
Might get a new bike soon though, one I can take the old lady on comfortably.rumpler of stiltskins

Currently looking at a 2018 ZX10R SE for $15k OTD. At this price I can find 2017 S1000RR's on ******** marketplace with super low miles. You guys think I can negotiate on this price? The ZX10 looks like its been sitting on the floor for awhile and it has 500 miles on it. How low do you think I can go? This is a dealership btw.
