Street fighters are all about attitude and aggression. Power alone don't cut it. Power, handling, braking prowess that rival a true blued sport bike but with relaxed seating position so that you can easily do wheelie and endo and all around hooning: Tuono, Brutale, Super Duke, Corsaro, Speed Triple, Street Fighter, 1125CR (with a chain drive conversion instead of the pussy belt drive).

One of these days the Japanese will understand and make a proper street fighter. The B-King comes fairly close except that it's too damn fat and heavy.
