Where is everyone?

Hey, where is everyone? I actually just picked the bike up for a test ride. I know the manager pretty well and he offered a few of us test rides. When you buy 6 or 7 bikes from a guy you tend to get a few perks. Riding the newest and coolest bikes is one of them. Unlimited access to the third floor new and used bikes, is another.

Thought you might want to see a picture of the Super Duke!

Hi SamM
Nice bike! I'm not a sportbike nut but it looks like you can ride it normally {sitting upright}. The head light resembles the Hyosung bikes. I like it!

PolygonFla,
I figured you were just busy!

Yes, it rides very nice! I was over 100 on the interstate in just a matter of seconds. The 990SD engine is much smoother than the 950 engine in my Adventure S. The efi is a little peaky at low rpm but it's not a deal breaker. Awesome bike! If you get a chance ride one! I highly recommend the experience. It's nice to know there are high quality bikes out there to meet those requirements, if you have them. I'm not ready to mortgage the farm to get one but it's a nice bike. The steering is very quick and it very easy to get in and out of parking lots and confined spaces.

I used to be a Buell guy and this bike is very similar to the S1W I have, well had. I still have some of it. I parted it out on ebay. I couldn't resisting riding it over to the Harley shop and taking a few pictures. This is the bike Buell should be making.

I'm 5'10" with a 32" inseam. I had no trouble at all on the Super Duke. It's much lower than my 950 S. I lowered the S about 1" with a new custom suspension, just after getting it.

Great bikes! I'm going with my buddy to pick up a 2002 Ducati ST4s tomorrow. Can't wait!
