    My first bike was a 2006 Suzuki GZ250, a little beginner cruiser bike with just enough power to keep up on the highway with it pinned in top gear. Comfortable and fun, especially around town.

    After 3500 miles on the GZ, I made quite the jump to a 2012 Triumph Street Triple R. I wanted something sportier but still fairly comfortable (vs something like an R6, where there were plenty available near me). I didn’t want something heavy or something that I would grow out of soon. I’ve only had it for about a month but so far I’m loving it! It’s incredibly fast (to me ofc; can’t even imagine what a literbike feels like), I really need to be careful with it lol
