I just rode a 09 street triple r and that was awesome. It checks all the boxes for what I want right now. It was comfortable, really sporty, and quick without caring what gear it was in. With the flyscreen it had surprisingly good wind protection. I like my ninja, but that triumph was just a joy to ride fast or cruise on. A couple mods and it'll tear up the track too although stock the r is really a capable machine. I'm saving the cash for a 2013. I was getting a BRZ first but its taking far to long and as of now I can't stop thinking about getting the STR.
