Both are naked =/= not meant for long distance riding.

I've once rode a friend's Streetfighter 848 from KL to Melaka at average 170kmph. As tiring as hell.

Hence, get a Rabbit/848EVO/R1 for long distance, and get a 135LC or FZ150 for city rides.

Big bikes for city rides through jam = Nightmare. Left hand tired for clutch, and whole body will suffer to control the heavy bike at low speed.

I've also experienced the Monster 696 CBU for quite some time.

Handling is heaven, can take corners and cilok with confidence of not losing control. Low speed maneuvers through jam is also not that bad, albeit still tiring.

Power-wise, it leaves big room to yearn for once u've been on a Streetfighter 8484.

It is also low-bodied, suitable for those under 170cm. It would be comfortable if you're of average height.
