What is a decently fast dual sport? I currently drive a Ninja 250 (beginner, riding for about a month) and the bike's top speed isn't bad but I am tired of having to rev it to 13k just to get some decent acceleration anywhere.

i was considering something a GSXR 600 or 750 or honda cbr600rr..something along those lines.

then I remembered I live in new england and you really can't enjoy those bikes around these parts. so I am considering getting a decently fast dual sport instead which I can hit some trails or wont go flying if I hit a road snake.

suggestions? want something brappy af lads

Way too many. probably would've been done sooner if I had a garage to work on it during the winter.

We're still at no tacho, no speedo, and nonworking radiator fans. It -might- be the ECU but I'd rather have a shop confirm that before I replace the part.

Electrical issues are NEVER fun to troubleshoot, especially when they're not just a simple component failure. Gonna have to ride it 40 minutes to a shop Wednesday with my rad fans hooked up to a switch to get it fixed. That'll be fun to explain to the dealership.

It's a bit of a pain in the ass, yes. I've had to almost completely rewire this bike twice, but I'm sure the electrical system is a lot more simple. Now my low beam isn't working so I have to figure out which connector is broken.

Yes, they are. HOWEVER

Plus my shit seems like it has a random short somewhere.

Instrument panel lights up when diodes are unplugged with is NOT supposed to happen

Remove one main relay and the fuel system gets stuck on prime and the radiator fans turn on

Basically it's a big clusterfuck that I really don't have time for. I get like 1 day off a week. The amount of time I have to work on it doesn't justify how long it'd take.
