And I've owned a lot of bikes, this thing is amazing.

And it's not even broken in yet, I bought it with 500 miles on it. It had the exhaust on it, next up is fixing the fueling and a 14t front sprocket. I love all the info on the forum, I'll be posting up more with this bike and the 1198S racebike.

I agree! Here's a pic of mine, with 1200 miles on it so far.

14 tooth sprocket is on order and will be on the bike on Tuesday.

I've added frame and axle sliders, a Leo Vince exhaust and PCV with dyno tune. Still to do is the DP performance low seat, different mirrors, 520 chain conversion, steering stabilizer, and a few other things.

It IS the funnest bike I've owned also. I've always had race, well, everything, so I'm still dealing with not having a race bike and the lack of fairing, but these days I'm riding differently and my Hyper suits my riding style and purposes perfectly.

 

[Drinky]

Agree totally.

This is the first bike I've owned which I actually want to keep longer than a year. I've sold all my other bikes within a year because I got bored of them.

If I only had the money for an enduro bike as well, that would be so awesome

Not a Ducati, or even a road bike.

I can't split my 2 most favourite, fondly remembered and greatest fun bikes ,,,,

First was a Hodaka Ace 100, with a Webco 125 kit
Second was a Honda XL250 motosport.


But to road bikes ,,,
I have VERY fond memories of the Kawasaki Mach III's that I had back in the early 1970's.
One of which I still own to this day. It's a 1973 H1E


But to the topic of this thread ,,,, My 2007 ST3 puts a smile on my face when I look at it ,,, and a lump in my jeans when I ride it.

Most fun bike? I'd have to choose my heavily personalized 2009 KTM 250 XCWe (2 stroke). I love that bike! It is by far the best handling motorcycle I have ever ridden and I have ridden just about everything imaginable in my 51 years except a new XCW. I rode Utah's Five Miles of Hell trail with it last fall......the most fun I have ever had on two wheels.

The Hyper is the most fun road worthy vehicle (2 or 4 wheels) I have ridden. The only thing I would trade her for is a new tri-color SP.

NICE 1

I just picked up my SP on Friday and love it...

I'd have to say my 98 Honda CR250R was my favorite and my worse . The raw low end power was great but the multiple trips to the ER sucked. I retired racing motoX in 2004 and now my 2012 796 is my 2 wheeled passion!! I've done airbox mod, cat delete, fresco slip ons ,14t front and pcv with dyno tune and she fricking RUNS !!!

I wish I never sold my Mach III and I had several Hodakas including a super combat wombat I wish I still had them all ,but my favorite dirt bike was my Bultaco 250 Jim Pomeroy replica ,which I also sold My Kawa G31m was cool too.
My Hyper is defiantly the best and coolest street bike I ever owned and will be buried with me when I die .

Totally agree, have had some bikes in my time, but purchased my hyper-retard 1100s new in 2007 - 23500 miles later in rain or shine - still every time I take my helmet off, got this big smile across my face. that is what it's all about

bits I've added : - More carbon (never can have to much ) Nichols flywheel, power commander, K&N, stm slipper clutch,steering damper, 2:1 termi ( shortened) and suspension setup correctly for me

painted engine black with PJ1 satin engine paint (2years later still looks great)
and plenty of Rubber.

ride safe

 

[Martyn]

I'll agree with everyone that it is the most fun bike I've ever owned. I've had 25 bikes with over 40 years of riding, and the Pteradactyl is just a hoot!

My mods include a termi 2 into 1, MWR airbox lid, power commander, Evolucione clutch slave cylinder, complete racetech front suspension and reworked rear shock, Scott steering damper, Speedymoto clutch cover, carbon fiber rear hugger.

I change the oil and the rear tire every 2,000 miles!

 

[Motoman_AZ]

20,000 miles later and I still agree... THE FUNNEST bike I have ever owned! ENJOY!

 

[Tgpatrsn]

I just picked my 08 Hyper on Friday and it is by far one of the funnest bikes I have owned. I can't wait to go for another ride!!
