Sportbike, although I'd need an extra vote for 'cruiser' until my ex's bike departs my garage.

+1 to Celt's comment. My bike is a street tracker but Standard is the best description.

Standards rock!

can I vote again? I marked "tourer" this time around....but I also own a Dual Sport.....hmmmmmmmmm

I checked the results just now and standards are ahead. Which is odd because I don't really see all that many on the road (compared to cruisers and sportbikes). It'll be interesting to see how this one turns out.

I think its because of the population of people here. Kinda a birds of a feather flock together thing.

TMW is a very level, centrist type of community. We obviously have our cruiser guys and sportbike guys, but we seem to have more of the people that are open to either or, and I think a lot of those people end up with standards.

Instead of cruiser people and sportbike people, we have motorcycle people

Since my bike has no bodywork to speak of, and the riding postion is more upright than forward leaning... I voted "standard."

(but my bike has an R in the name!! One of the first ones to carry the R designation...haha)

Used to have that same bike -- loads of starter problems. . . but the biggest headlight in the world!
