Thumping singles, pulsating v-twins or purring fours?

In this age of high fuel costs, heavily policed speed limits and increasing ACC levies we have to move away from the pursuit of ultimate speed and find different ways of enjoying our bikes. What engine configuration provides the most fun ridden sanely at legal speeds?

At legal speeds? None of them...haha.

A triple...... .

[george formby]

Yup, I'm fond of my twins soundtrack but have just re-discovered the joys of ring ding ding oil burners too. Lithe & energetic.

[Devil]

Triples!

[Gremlin]

Well, it's not a vtwin, but it is a twin. Horizontally opposed

Who pursues ultimate speed?
I, like many others, just likes to get along at a good safe clip, to get where I'm going without spending all fecking day doing it.......

Back to the question......siren sixes!

[Kees]

Definetly the V-Twin....low down torque..n i i i i ce

As much as I love 4-cylinder screamers, I would seriously consider a v-twin or Triumph triple as my next bike, just for the sound.

[HenryDorsetCase]

Street Triple! Street Triple!!

or Honda RC166 250cc 6.

yeah baby

[dogsnbikes]

Triples and singles and 300 ks of twisties is all you need


ok maybe 4-500 k's of twisties

[Renegade]

i love em all for all different reasons, i just cant decide

[Old Steve]

Gotta admit I'm a V-twin guy. Mind you, mine may be small but with the baffles removed sounds real sweet in a thumpity sort of way. Love her at about 4000 rpm with just a little throttle on.

I have had an, Il4 250 - Threashed the shit out of, and I miss it, a V4 400 - Would still have it if it wasnt for some thieving cunts but it chewed through gas like a hooker chewed through seamen, (Due to my aggressive riding nature), now im on the Vtwin Hyosack 650, and the low end tourque and the sound of the motor when your giving it a good thrash is great, doesnt feel like the bike is trying to rip me outta the seat like the other bikes, but all the same, I have loved all 3,
I also had a scorpio 225 single for a week while I was waiting for an insurance claim on the 400, and hated it, haha not to say a bigger CC single would be bad, I felt it gutless and boring haha
