  • Bit late to the what-bike chat, but this is roughly what I was going to say. Plus the standard reminder that most decent size branded dealers will let you take a bike out for a decent test ride, so do that a lot to work out what you want.

    I'm all but settled on twin for the lower reving throaty behavior. One thing I am certain of is that I do not want a high reving sport bike.

    It's going to come down to a speed twin, thruxton RS and maybe even a Bonneville bobber. Shop also has a z900rs Cafe but that's a 4 and I don't want that. I'm going to test the rninet as well, but I doubt I want that bike in my life.

    Having spent a couple hours at 7-10k, and nowhere close to the red line... you're missing out.
