help with choosing a new bike

by Chet <chet@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 27, 2008 at 09:19 AM

Hello

   I presently have 2 newer bikes, an 02 Yamaha FZ1 with 18k miles, and 
an 07 Suzuki SV 650S with 2K miles, I am trying to get an in between 
bike that will compromise, the Yamaha has power and comfort, a bit 
heavy, average handling, excellent braking and about 43 mpg, the Suzuki 
has good handling, great fuel economy, decent braking, power is ok, on 
the highway going into a headwind the bike is down on power, I realize 
it's only a 70hp 650, what are some opinions from some riders, looking 
for light weight, excellent handling, and power in between the 2 bikes I 
have now, and keeping better than average fuel economy in mind, for 
starters, someone mentioned the new Triump street triple, weighs in at 
367 and and has 107hp, any comments so far on this bike.


             thanks
                Chet
