If Not A Yaris...WHat?

[Jedz123]

My next cage will likely be one of these guys:


My first economy car ( and first car) was an 89 Ford Escort and I loved it! 40 mpg all day and plenty of pep.

The Ford Fiesta ST delivers on par fuel economy to a Yaris but has so much more available power. Love me my forced induction.

As I now live so close to work the MPG isn't much of a deal anymore. If I need to go on a long trek I'll likely be on the bike anyway and even my Hayabusa powered B-King grabs north of 40 mpg... Even the Bandit does well for daily commuting. My next car will be small for I love driving small cars vs big ones. But this time I'm not going to need full on economy, I want some flare please. The Yaris can be a bit yawwny.

My opinion.

Trip on a B-King? You need an ST1300 or 1100 for that...

Love the B-Kings exhaust though!

No Yawnda's for this cat although the ST does make a hell of a tourer. I was contemplating getting an FJR1300 before committing to the BK but I wanted my bike to weigh less the 550lbs, oh and be able to hit a 1/4 mile in the 9 second range..

Bandit is a phenomenal long distance runner too... FZ1 did it well but it's currently not setup for such uses

And yes my BK has a nice derriere


OK Not hijacking this thread... Let's hear some other options!!!
