Hanging it Up! Want my Hyper???
Hi all,
I'm going to be giving up the life of a hooligan and focu my attention on flying again. It's more family friendly and something I miss, and I can't do both. The Hyper has been AMAZING in terms of a motorcycle and allowing me to make so many great new friends!!! Thanks all for that and I promise to stay in touch, attend bike parties, and occasionally pit for you crazy bastards at the track (Alex). This Hyper is not an ordinary and I will be posting a FS ad in the classifieds soon.
MODS:
Engine - DP cams, Ducshop lightened flywheel, DP racing slipper clutch with Barnett plates, LV cat eliminator and exhaust, PC-III, and new Ducshop Hyperstacks. it runs AWESOME!!
Other additions include DP seat, windscreen, extra rear peg thingies with sliders, sliders on frame and wheels, carbon hugger, tank cover, DP carbon heel guards when running mono, carbon clutch cover, DP rear rack and bag, Scotts steering damper, and extra rear spoiler, Ducati cover, sport chalk stand. and maybe other stuff I forgot about. AND I have ALL the stock stuff too!!!
Cheers all!
Todd aka HYPRDUC, aka the TOOL.....

John, I think you mean Jared. I saw him in December and he was healing up well.
Forgot to mention Hyper is the S model and has 5923 miles, never been laid down, 4 months left on warranty. It has been on several track days and runs with the best of them!!!
I want to go faster, which means I'm almost guaranteed to get hurt. Can't afford that so going flying instead!!!
If anyone wants a "pre" listing shot at the bike pm me otherwise wait for the ad in the classifieds.
I'm hoping this is all OK as a thread because it is a goodbye message, not a sales ad

So how does one wheelie a plane
See ya around dude.
EDIT: Just signed up for 3/21 Fontana trackday with Obie. Hoping I can post better times than Todd this time. Even though he'll have no bike and is going to have to jog the track it's still not a sure thing that I can take him;-)

No way!!! What's this nonsense about flying!!! My ears, my ears!!
I hope this is only a joke, like when you said you were gonna trade your Hyper for a Streetfighter...
C'mon! Who's gonna grab Alex from the tail and slow him down now that his motor of death is not leaking oil like hell all over the track?
You guys are like Dante & Virgil to me, you can't split up!
There should be a petition on this forum to have you reconsider this nonsensical deed.
Francesco

and don't forget the wheleie you ride on soft field landings, unless in a taildragger then it's more like a stoppie!!
I look forward to getting active again. I oversee two airports and hate watching everyone else fly!!
Sale ad goes up this wekeend. No remorse yet either.... must be for real!
