Sporty or Faired Motorcycles – The most beautiful looking category of motorcycles is sporty or faired motorcycles. These motorcycles are mostly aggressive and sportier versions of the naked counterparts. However, in most cases, it is exactly opposite like the Yamaha R15 was launched and updated first and then the MT-15 came as a naked version of it. These faired motorcycles have multiple sub-categories like hypersport, supersport, sport-touring and a few more.
Pros – The first pro of a faired motorcycle is the looks! These motorcycles have dedicated and purposeful body panels which look good and obviously attract more attention. The big bikes in this category have their pedigree coming from races like the MotoGP which makes them achieve more speed. Bikes in this category are made for the tarmac and they can definitely go fast as the fairing works cuts through the wind blasts. Handling and riding feedback is very sharp while these motorcycles have the highest possible top-speed too.
Cons – Although these motorcycles look good, the seating posture is way too aggressive and demanding. There are sport-tourers with slightly comfortable ergonomics but pillion duties aren’t the best on such motorcycle. There are some bikes in this category which don’t even have a pillion seat. The difficulty to maintain is more too as the fairing is the first thing that gets damaged in a crash. These motorcycles can cause backaches with the committed riding posture.
