Sounds like you are on a budget since you stated Rebel or Ninja 300. I use to ride a Yamaha R3, plenty of power for the freeway. I never once said its too slow. 4999 MSRP.

I personally prefer small motors since they rev faster. The Ninja 300 motor is a toy to rev up and down.

If you take state Road 53 to 19 you should be able to get to Fry's without being on the freeway.
You can even take 369 to 19. There are all sorts of ways to get to Fry's without going on a freeway. We use to do it all the time. The one we go to is on 9, which runs parallel to 19.
Currently own:
Red 2013 Honda PCX150
Givi tall windshield & tailbox - Lots of extra lights
Custom seat from Thailand - Bad Boy Airhorn
Takegawa Lowering Shocks - Michelin City Grip Tires
Headlight assy upgraded to LEDs w/HS5 main bulbs
NCY variator, drive face, and rollers

Hmm, buying through Amazon is much cheaper than getting a new bike so you can shop at Fry's. ;)
2013 PCX 150 [now an ex-bike, soon to be consigned to the bottom line of the sig]
2013 Silver Wing ABS (Black)
1971 BMW R75/5 (White)
Too many ex-bikes to list, and, besides, who really cares what we used to own?

In crazy traffic do not ride a bike or scooter. Take a car or public transport. Or avoid all contact with those areas even in a car. Use two wheels for safer riding areas.....and less stress.
