I voted "street".

I ride an '01 Kawasaki Ninja ZX9R sport bike that I got new in '02. My odometer just turned over 83,000 miles on my way to work aboard it this morning. It's been very reliable, comfortable and fun. I love riding it and average 10,000 miles per season.

If you've never ridden a sport bike, you should try one. I was convinced they were uncomfortable and only good for short trips based solely on sitting aboard them in the dealership. I thought I had the best comfort available in my touring bike. It was a test spin on a friend's Ducati that changed my mind. A few months later and I owned my 9R. I can comfortably ride it longer distances than I ever did on my touring bike. 400-500 mile, all back-road days are easy. I'm 44 years old. My next bike will also be a sport bike.
