Anyone else happy ?

You know, people might think all these bikes are junk if all they did was read these forums.

Is anyone else happy with their hyper ?

Has anyone else besides me not had any problems with their bike ?

Just wondering.

Thanks

Even with the problems I've had with my Hyper so far, I love it. It has character that none of the bikes I've owned in the past 23 years ever did. If it was as bland and generic (and ran perfectly) as all of my Hondas were I'm sure I'd be bored with it.

Read ANY forum and you will read about the weak points in every bike manufactured and ridden .. there is no escape.

I reckon mine's alright...

Of course, there are always going to be some quirks with any bike, but every time I come home from a spirited ride on the Hyper, I seem to have a shit-eating grin on my face!

I had an 848 before I traded it in on the Hyper. With the 848, and sportbikes in general, I was beginning to question riding on the street. With the Hyper, it's like I've discovered riding all over again. I absolutely love this bike.

Agree.

I've had 3 hard ridden KTMs without issue. Read the boards and you would never buy one.

this is a FUN bike. i am not making lap times on my local route but i dont care. this bike is just absolute fun. there are not many around so its a head turner everywhere. i have not had one problem with the bike so far. only 2k miles and that is because it took so long to get my 600 mile service.
