This 2022 Royal Enfield Continental GT650 is a lightweight, fun and flickable cafe racer, with a smooth gearbox and great handing that might surprise you in the twisties up Angeles Crest.

The Yamaha Tenere took the adv world by storm with it's lightweight, no-nonsense adventure bike, based on the industructable 700cc parallel twin that powers the MT07 and XSR700. Rent this bike by the hour, day or weekend for mini-adventure.

For a more upright riding position, the 2022 Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 has the same engine and chassis and the GT, but with wide street bars. The parallel twin offers plenty of power for city riding, but is surprisingly comfortable for longer trips too, and it can hustle in the canyons.

Defying all expectations, Triumph's 1200cc Thruxton RS cafe racer has high quality suspension and radial brakes, and handling that works on track as well as in the hills and canyons, powered by the High Power version of that 1200cc parallel twin kicking out 83 lb-ft (112 NM) of torque at 4250 rpm.

Harley-Davidson's Streetglide ST also uses the Milwaukee-Eight 117 powerplant and is another mile-mucher but with slighter shorter luggage and a smaller, sportier bar-mounted batwing fairing, streamlined tank console and smaller engine guards.
