HyperMotard thoughts!

Hey guys,

I'm new to the forum and I'm fallin in love with the HyperMotard S!
I test rode one back in October and I've been chewin' on it since!

I'm definately getting one.... how soon is the question.
I was wondering what your thoughts and recommendations might be in regards to the HM.

Are you:
A. very happy
B. somewhat happy
C. undecided
D. somewhat unhappy
E. very unhappy

Forgive my humor! The survey format just makes me laugh.

Anyway, I have a Brutale 910S currently (which I love), and I've owned an
S4R, 996, and a 748. So I know about the Italian engineering and some of their flaws, but I still love Ducati's and MV's and always will.

Your opinions on this machine would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks...

Just buy it and you'll be thanking us later! Be sure to upgrade the exhaust and ECU. Let this beast breathe and exhale like it should. Then you can open the clutch and swap pressure plates for a true sound and beauty that is hard to describe. Something like this

Most fun bike I have ever owned. Only gripes are the seat, mirros and the tea cup sized fuel tank. I tried to sell mine but every time that bike roars to life it makes me giggle.

We had a nice group ride tonight, about 25 bikes and it was the talk of the crowd.

You will not regret owning one.

i think that seating/riding position TO YOU would be most important. and yes, bring some extra fuel on a long ride (and a better windscreen too).

have fun and best success
