2009 Streetfighter Comparo III - Street Bike Motorcycle Comparison Review - Motorcycle USA
To fairing or not to fairing? This is the biggest question a sport motorcyclist faces when choosing a new high-performance street bike. Indeed, there was a time when a rider might choose a fully faired motorcycle based on the assumption that more bodywork equals more speed. But with the performance gap virtually the same between Streetfighter motorcycles and that of their fully-covered sportbike brethren, picking your next bike is more a matter of visual preference than anything these days.
Transplanted from deep inside Europe’s dense cities, the Streetfighter motorcycle is essentially a modern sportbike stripped of its main bodywork components and fitted with a standard, upright-style handlebar. It’s the motorcycle of choice for those who want the performance of a sportbike, but the more relaxed riding position of a standard; and a style all its own. Although they haven’t truly caught on here in the States, these motorcycles are not only entertaining to ride but stand out from the norm.
