I live in daytona and ride and see bikes all the time. this weekend at bike week i passed a whole group of street fighter bikes that appeared to be stock. i say this because one or two still had the new tags on the back. i've looked and looked to no avail. but it has a single underseat exhaust and a tube swing arm. im usually not that into street fighters but these stole my heart and are soon to steal the wallet too. ide appriciate any help identifying this bike.

we need pix dude... people can fighter a bike so good that it could look like oen and totally be another

Could you tell what kind of engine they had? Might narrow it down a little more. Any distinctive markings might clear things up a little and help us narrow it down for you.

I'm at a loss, I can't think of anything right now...

 

[Sevulturus]

I thought for a minute that it might be a ducati, but a quick search didn't find any with a single sided tube swinger, and an undertail exhaust.

Then I thought the new Benellis, but they have a normal swing arm.

There are very few production bikes I can think of offhand that have a singlesided swing arm, let alone a tube one.

Only thing I can think of is the MV Brutale.

Wait, Sev is right, the Benelli TNT does have a tubular swinger...he never said it had a single sided swingarm...

Here's a Benelli TNT 1130

Fits the bill to my eyes...

 

[Sevulturus]

That is a sexy bike.

Factory naked bikes aren't streetfighters btw.

Hah hah anyway what sort of headlight was on it so we can get a better idea? And what kind of frame did it have?

 

[Scrapyard]

Endo, I think you got it.

 

[endo]

credit goes to Sev on that one...I just posted the pic!

 

[BLONDE BOMBER]

i have to thank you endo. sorry for calling a stock naked bike a street fighter. didnt mean to offend anyone with my political incorrectness. and that is one sexy bike.

DUcati do Make a retro, with a single shock on one side I forgot the name of it, all of there bikes are named after pasta dishes any how,

 

[endo]

NP man, but I still think credit goes to Sevulturus.

Don't worry about the factory 'fighter vs. streetfighter thing. The way I see it is that if Streetfighters Magazine, the OGs, can say a bike is a factory fighter, it's a feasible thing for me to say. I know some don't agree, but oh well...you won't please everybody lol.

To me, Streetfighting is an attitude, not a type of bike.
