I realize you JUST got it but I would really like your opinion. If you still had your 09 would you have been happy with this purchase?
Thanks

well i would say that the biggest regret that i have regarding bikes is that i sold my 2009 hyper 1100. If i could wind the clock back i would definalty have kept it. I would have saved a lot of money because i changed it to a 796 monster which i hated because of the hard suspension and only had it for three weeks, i then changed it to a triumph tiger 800xc which was a really first class bike, but once you have been smitted with a hyper, I don't think that any other bike will give you the contentment that it does. Now that i have this machine, there is definatley a good improvement, the seat is even a lot comfortable, i like the colour scheme, the bike is a bit higher which i like, the torgue is improved in that the front wheel is harder to keep down and if you are asking the question would i change the 2009 to the 2012, the answer is no. simply because of the money it cost me to get me to where i am. On the other hand if you were getting a fair deal the answer is a definate yes all the way. You see my wife was the one who done the deal for me and what a surprise that was on Christmas morning.
