you would be crazy not to go for it, and he is crazy to accept it.

jump on that before this man comes to his senses. a white SP is one of the most unique stock bikes ever created.. and you're correct, people spend a lot of money to "upgrade" their bikes whereas this has basically everything you could ever want.

just do it man, truly a no-brainer.

not that you're biased or anything

Thanks guys, it helps reinforce my decision.

I'll see if I can make it work. This would be a bike that I would see myself owning for a very long time to come.

Doesn't sound like a bad deal at all to me. But if it were me I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the two once saddled up. If anything I'd put that $2k into painting mine if the paint scheme is really what you want (fairings, subframe, triples, rearsets, etc.). That'd come out to a LOT cheaper upgrade and you already that yours has slightly less mileage and is in GOOD shape. Just my 2c.

The white evo sp is the nicest hyper in my opinion!!! I would trade my 09 standard + cash right away!!! If the bike is in good condition .....

 

[CAlexio]

$2k in paint does not an SP EVO make!!!!

 

[Austen]

Nope, not it doing for the color.

There are actually quite a few subtle differences between the two models.

 

[Darsey]

i think that the sp is a bike with having. I just like that bit of extra height

 

[aa996]

I cant speak for the older Hyper as I never rode one, but I do love my 2010 Evo SP. Being a tall guy it fits me well, and for the riding I do it's the perfect weapon.

 

[Darsey]

It's all down to what you really want out of a motorcycle. Mine ticks all the boxes for me.

 

[Austen]

Thanks guys, your insight is appreciated.

The main thing that appeals to me most about the SP in particular over my S is the extra height.

If you got that bike from Delano, you are the bastard that stole my bike! I dickered around when my buddy told me aboot that bike, and I finally decided to pull the pin at what ended up to be 2 hours too late, because you called. I even considered telling the dealer that I would pay you a couple hundred to walk away from the deal, but he said you sent your deposit in. My buddy knows that bike well, and it is one nice ride. It not only has a TON of goodies on it, but was also very well taken care of. I would think long and hard before letting go of a bike like that.

No way!

Wow, I didn't know about this. I apologize for any hard feelings!

Honestly, this same kind of situation happend with me once or twice before I came across this one. It just goes to show that there are others out there.... such as this one in my case. That being said and you haven't already, you will find another. One of the neat things about a Ducati is that the majority of them are very well kept and often are already setup with the right accessories. It can be discouraging when you feel like the right one escaped but you'll find the right one, but it'll come along and may it may not be on the market at the moment. Don't settle for less.

Yes, this one is just about as pristine as one could come and I would have a very hard time seeing it go. That said, the SP has a lot to live up to condition wise. I will be looking at the '10 this weekend and will keep you all posted.

 

[JACKIE TREEHORN]

Too funny. After I lost the one you got (and after I got done kicking myself in the ass), I grabbed a case of sparks (the orange ones, what kind of tool would like the red ones?), 20 slimjims, and a box of wet wipes, and started my search across the nation to find a hyper. I found one in IL, and sealed the deal as soon as I found it (lesson learned). It isn't anywhere near as trick as yours, but it is black, which is my color of choice, so it's all good. But yours is one nice piece, that is for sure.

And from here on oot, we may be Ducbrothers, but we will never be Ducfriends...

 

[Austen]

I'm glad to hear you found one that was your color of choice! An Evo too it looks like!

You'll enjoy turning it into your own personal bike.

And from here on oot, we may be Ducbrothers, but we will never be Ducfriends...

Hahaha, alright.

 

[Uli Kunkel]

Hyper snatched

Well,

I'm the tool who likes RED sparks, and I'm the guy who's buddy traded the '08 in on a KTM.....(fool). I am also the buddy who told and showed Jackie Treehorn the '08 and he sat and pud-knocked too long and then some guy did a internet deal.......talk about a good dealer, they had a guy standing there with CASH and still made the deal over the phone.....lucky you.

I guess my pal had the time to think about his bad decision and went to Chi-town to get the blackie as soon as he knew he was fuc*ed on the '08......about 2.5 minutes.

Uli.

Update:

Went to look at it today and couldn't believe that it has anywhere near 7400 miles on it. Condition wise, it's flawless. You'd guess that it had maybe 500 miles-?, if that, on it. The controls and everything appear as if they had never been used. Contrary to the pics, the tires were recently replaced and are near new as well.

I put cash down and we agreed upon the $2k. I feel it's going to be a good deal as the seller is going to cover the cost of the 7500 service as well as sales tax to keep it an even $2k trade. Depending on the service arrangements, I should have it in my hands later next week.

The S will going to a REALLY good home. The seller and I both share the same attributions on bike care and I have strong faith that it will be in good hands and treated as it should. I am very proud to have owned such a wonderful example as this one.
