New S Owner

Well, used S owner would be more accurate, I guess. I'm the fortunate soul who found Debby's classified listing about 10 days ago. Traded a very nice GT with Termis and a bunch of other stuff (and some cash) for her almost new Hyper S (also with some nice stuff). I've lusted after the Hyper since I attended the unveiling last summer but couldn't justify buying a new one with a perfectly good 2007 GT in my garage.

We met for the first time a week ago, rode each other's bikes and then spent the week hammering out the details. Pulled off the trade this morning and I posted a few pictures on the Sport Classic forum. For the last week I've been scanning this forum and you folks have done some awfully nice work with your Hypers!

I think I'll be keeping it fairly stock for a while. But, once I get the feel of the bike, who knows? Anyway, nice to be here!

Welcome to the HM side of the forum. It will be interesting to see how you compare the HM to the GT over time.

+1 on the comparison. It'd be interested to hear the difference between the two. Power, handling, etc..

Welcome and enjoy.
