Motorcycle Reviews: 2010 Streetfighter Shootout: Kawasaki Z1000 vs. Triumph Speed Triple

Motorcycle Reviews: 2010 Streetfighter Shootout: Kawasaki Z1000 vs. Triumph Speed Triple Full review: tinyurl.com In case you havent noticed, were big fans of naked sportbikes. Fast enough to thrill yet plenty accommodating for daily use, their do-it-all nature is highly appealing to us. Not only did the versatile and riotously fun Triumph Street Triple R take the Motorcycle of the Year award in our Best of 2009 article, weve also given plenty of ink to naked bikes in comparison tests. Which brings us to Kawasakis new Z1000 sports roadster. American riders have been reluctant to buy naked bikes such as this, but Kawasaki believes it has a winner on its hand with its ground-up redo of the streetfighting Z1K. We became believers, too, after testing the Zee during its December press launch. It is a huge advancement over the previous generation Z1000, offering more grunt, sure-footed handling and less vibration. It proved to be so competent that we decided to see how it would fare against the endlessly appealing Triumph Speed Triple, a true icon of the genre that has been around since 1994.
