Scottie, I think that if you sold your Hyper, you'll be sorry, I know the Apeceochita SM is your new baby, but as a friend I "think"  you should wait at least a year and do MORE track days, (with us)  with both bikes, and see what you think after that.
You won't believe how much fun the Hyper is on tracks like Laguna Seca, so you gotta try that one before you sell you Hyper! So I'll see you soon at the TRACK and we can "rub" elbows!  Aloha Alex

Thanks for posting the link Antigrav, I had a thread going here but it was pretty ancient and under a funny title.. I'll post updates in this thread as well when I have them!!
Progress is a bit slow, but I expect to have the fabrication work done by the end of the month. After that, it's going to be stripped down, swap the frame for a clear title one (to evade the inspection etc.), get the Ohlins forks and BST's (Thanks Shift-Tech!!) mounted and get her ready for spring!! I'm stoked with it, hope to have shed about 20 lbs off the bike total (subframe, tank, forks and wheels and some minor bits&pieces), should be fun...

Definately taking things into consideration...I just don't want to have the thing sitting in the garage not being ridden...It should be a better this year, meaninig I hopefully will have more time to ride on the weekends, and if I take longer rides the SxV won't like that, so the Hyper could be valuble... my main goal is to ride much more this year and mostly on the tracks...
