It's a Ducati.....
It will be by far the best bike you've ever ridden....

Life is short, ride Hyper!
Your sig says it all. Just buy it. It has its quirks but it will be the most fun you've had on a bike. And, if the avatar is you, I ride a WR450. Seriously, one blue biker to another, go now, buy it. Just watch out for the amazing front brakes on your first ride.
I guarantee you will change your sig to LIFES SHORT RIDE HYPER.

Ive had mine for 2000 miles now and havent had a bit of trouble
The 2000 miles have been full tilt boogie go fast brake hard miles with a shitload of wheelies thrown in for good measure
I love punkin the young crotchies when they fuck with me
I adore my Hyper bigtime and we are just getting aquainted

The maintenance will be more electrical and loose bolts rather than engine servicing (oil changes and valves clearances) like on any other motard.

alounacara, your posts always seem to make me laugh. There is always a one liner queued up. It's sort of like.........I hear myself saying these things to one of my buddies.
