Looking to buy a new motorcycle
I am planning on buying another street bike. I've had dirt bikes all my life and have a supermoto before but I have never had a actual street bike. I keep hearing get another drz400 but I have found that I also like ducati monsters. People I've talked to say I'll get board on a naked/ sport bike with in the first month. Thoughts?

You won't find a new one of these but there are some nice ones out there to be had. Mine is an 03 ZRX1200 with the Muzzy big bore kit and exhaust. You won't get bored of enough power to lift the front wheel at 125 and enough torque to give a Cummings diesel a run for it money.

Got me leaning towards a ducati. I just moved from TN to the Midwest and things aren't as twisty here so I just don't see a supermoto being as fun

Yep. You just moved from the best roads there are. I go to Deals Gap in April and October just to ride. I quit riding on the street in Florida except track days. If your near the Ozarks, there are some good roads there. Good luck with your choice and ride safe.
