A new hyper

Looks like I'll be the owner of a new-to me 08' Hper S (Black)

Heading to Va. on saturdayto meet the owner. Anybody have any feedback on the dealership in Yorktown, Va?

I'm a little new to Ducati, I have a 2010 Streetfighter, which I love! But I want something to keep the speeds a little lower....

Great forum, keeping the F1098, buying the hyper for commuting and other....

Was thinking of going back to Japanese bikes for this ...but .. maybe there is wisdom in staying with a single manufacturer?

I welcome any thoughts ...

You will like the Hyper a lot, probably the most fun bike I have ever ridden. I have built quite a few so I have a lot of good modifications you may be interested in (Dyno proven).

I'm new to Ducati's but what I've learned so far is to set your suspension. IMO its the best bang for your buck mod you can do. Aggresive riding on a hyper with out-of-whack sag could be hazerdous to your health.

yea you have made a good decision. The Hyper is a very good alround bike and the more that you ride the more you will like it. Post some pictures when you get her

Very cool I like the rear blinkers. You will love it I had mine for 2 years and still sit in the garage and admire it. I give you a few months be for you can't help but mod it. At least you got it with a nice exhaust set up.
