What is a good sport street bike that handles wind on freeways?

Rick A asked:


I dont like the big ones that look like cop bikes but more so the ninja style or r1 style. Which one slips through the wind best. I do freeway driving and was wondering which sport/street bike is best at handling buffeting winds?
Thanks for responding you guys but more specifically what is a good sport bike that cuts through the wind the best. I know all bikes have wind issues but some are worse than others and some are better. For example a Katana is not really good at stopping winds. I know you can get like a Goldwing but those fat ugly bikes I don’t like. Was curious what sport bike is best if you have ridden any over 70 mph on the freeway.
