I appreciate the help, guys. It’s funny because, in my mind, I was thinking of a Bonnie or Speed Twin and was hoping kinda for that answer. I’ll have to test ride a T100, T120, and Speed Twin to see how I like it and how much power I need.

@yannis Would you say the power of the Tuono is usable on the roads? I have ridden Panigale V2,V4 and BMW 1000RR and these are amazing bikes, I just found them boring on roads. On a track, yes, every day!

I’m seeking some assistance from fellow motorcycle enthusiasts here, as we have quite a passionate community.

I’ve been a Harley-Davidson guy for quite some time. I recently sold my Sportster and still own a beloved Deluxe Twin Cam.

I’m on the lookout for a bike to add to my collection, primarily for fun. So, what does “fun” mean to me?

I’m looking for a bike that’s easy to handle, has sufficient power, and offers an enjoyable ride on winding roads where my Deluxe struggles to maintain a lean angle of 10 degrees or more without scraping I also want a bike that can make me take detours while commuting.

I don’t plan on taking the bike to the track or using the highway frequently. Occasionally, I ride it with my wife, but we usually take the Harley for two up riding.

I’m open to any type of bike, but if you think a 125cc bike is the most fun, that’s perfectly fine. If you think a Panigale is the only bike that can provide fun, that’s also acceptable.

However, I believe that riding a slower bike at high speeds is more enjoyable than riding a fast bike at low speeds. I also believe that supersport bikes like the Panigale are primarily designed for track use and don’t offer the same level of fun on the road.
I am not too much into Dual Sports/ ADV‘s as I am not planning to go off-road, but maybe would need to ride one once.

If I had to compare the bike I am looking for to a car, I would say I’m looking for something similar to the MX5 or Miata. Anyone who has driven an MX5 will have a big smile on their face, knowing that any Porsche would be easily beat you in a race.

Would be great to pick your brains and get some ideas.

I have a bike in my mind that I like purely from the looks but would prefer to not influence.

@Nik intensity wise you spend the majority in the now called zone 2 I assume, or top end of zone 2? But yeah for 90‘+ I always fuel even when intensity is lower. How does your mix look like? Maltodextrin mainly? Do you never have solid fuel on your long runs ?

@Jcaz6996 Valencia is a fast course! Enjoy it

@Jcaz6996 From my experience you really need to train your gut. Gradually. Practice it in training, especially at race pace efforts and train to gut to tolerate carbs. As for the carb load I go around 6-8g carbs/kg bodyweight 48h out to 10g carbs/kg bodyweight 24 hours out. Then again, I train carb loads as well.

@goosehd mindblowing….

Well loved Wesco‘s.

@Jcaz6996 I would love to run Lobdon one day! Enjoy it!
I unintentionally broke the sub 90’ half in Berlin end of March. Now back to long course triathlon training.
