I have a dilema now, any of you mentioned that before?, are this kind of bike intented just for one and only rider?.
Make comments plz. Try to convince me. Don't let me alone on this. I really like the bike and I'm allready adjusting my budget, but... do I have to keep my lovely MTS after all.
PD: Sorry, I just noticed that. |
Rattsan, you will be ok..

I suppose if you just wanted it for horsing around solo. The passenger pegs aren't obnoxious looking and the upright position is certainly better for carrying a passenger than a forward sport lean.
Hmm, maybe a super version "S8R" with a 1098 engine/swingarm/traction control.

I can sleep again
I make the comment to my girlfriend and the first thing she said was "forget it, you are just not riding that thing alone  ".
I was thinking on breaking the relationship (to be honest). 
Now I'm going to tell her that I have to buy the extra foot pegs, maybe I can get some $500 from her. 
Jus kidding.

It's so nice! Tough decision but it's between the KTM duke or the HyperMotard!

+1 based on my experience with my 900SS, bulletproof. The Hyper looks better in person, cooler looking than the 1098.

The Hyper-tard looks like the winner hands down but I'd like ride both to just in case I might have a slight change of brand-loyalty!
