Which kind of bike to go for? Advice needed

Naked bikes definitely are a lot less stable and therefore a lot more dangerous than a bike with a fairing. Also, the lack of a screen to tuck behind makes the wind pelt you directly in the chest unless you’ve got your entire body laid out on the tank. Anything over 110-120 on my bandit or my MT07 felt like I was doing 200+, and the wobble was unbelievable sometimes dependant on the speed of the head wind. Any bike I’ve ridden that has fairings is lot more aerodynamic and therefore cuts through the air rather than letting air pass through the bike.

Source: owned both naked and sport bikes. Definitely would say naked is more dangerous and not for the faint hearted. Nowhere near as stable as a sport bike with fairings.
