Re[2]: MEZ4s

The question, more or less for those who have 
riden sports bikes. How does the sprint, IYHO, 
compare to the handling of a sport bike. 
     
     Thomas,
     
     I came to the ST after a Suzuki TL1000S. The handling on the Triumph 
     is stable and secure. It's a very easy bike to ride quickly and I 
     suspect many riders would be capable of riding just as quickly on the 
     ST as on a pure sportsbike. The ride is basically confidence inspiring 
     and the riding experience is a pure pleasure.
     
     However, it is not an out and out sportsbike and in direct comparison 
     it does fail to deliver the pure exhilleration one receives from 
     riding a big superbike. 
     
     I still have the TL and use it mostly for track days and the 
     occasional fast blast when I get some free time. Generally though, 
     when I go into the garage, I pick up the keys of the Triumph.
