I might do something foolish...

Well not really foolish... I have been riding sportbikes for the last 9 years and 60,000 Miles, I have always had full fairing bikes. Since the hyper came out I have had to pick up my tongue everytime I see one. My dealer who I have bought my last couple of bikes from called me yesterday and said they have a Black S in stock that was traded in with 1200 miles on it. He said he would give me a killer deal on it and I could take it friday and put some miles on it to test it out being that I have never ridden one. After cursing at him and telling him he is a bad influence I agreed and will have the bike this friday...hahah.

Right now I ride a 2005 749S that some aftermarket goodie...I dont want to sell it and ideally would keep it and have the two. I guess this post is to either have you guys talk me out of it, into it, and or tell me what can I expect for differences.

help? I know this is like going to an AA meeting with a shot of whiskey and asking them if you should pound it...but I dont know where else to go!

Joe
ps- plus i love you guys...lol

My guess is your at the wrong place if you want to be talked out of getting it. I have only had mine a couple months now, but I have nothing but great things to say about it. It might be the most fun bike I've ever ridden. I would say get it if you can.

Wear a full face helmet to keep the bugs out of your teeth, you will be smiling the whole time your out on it.

Keep the wheelies responsible.......

Keep your other bike cuz all th HM is good for is fun...
