The Street Triple is compact, Light, Fast and just the tiniest bit sexy too :)

My brother, best mate and I love our Hondas.

My brother, best mate and I love our Hondas.

I have alternating moods of "I want to go fast!" and "I want to putt about and be cool".
I have a Honda VTR250 which is so comfy and lightweight and a really soft ride. It doesn't go super fast (160km and hour is the best I've managed) but it never gives me a sore bottom and is super light and the lowest bike I have sat on. It was a great bike to learn on, and now that I am getting my open license (250cc and above) I have been riding my best friends new Street Triple heaps. In australia they are really new and hard to get. He ordered his June 2007 and got it Feb 2008. Anyhow, it is so light! - I'm a weakling so this is important. And nice and nimble, leans so easy. It looks really cute and sporty too. The seat is a bit more harsh than my honda, and sort of hurts the old front bottom a bit. The dealer suggested the gel seat, but warned that once it heats up on a hot day, parked in the sun, it holds the heat forever. We live in the australian desert, so that isn't too good for us.
It blows a lot of hot air onto my thighs - but I'm sure this will be nice in winter :)

It really is pretty special and I wouldn't mind one myself in the Pearl White - ahh... so feminine *blink blink*

I would love to try the Aprillia Shiver. Anyone else tried it? I'm worried it might be too heavy.
