2009 Hypermotard or 2008 CBR1000rr

That's a tough one, good luck deciding.

 

If you can afford the shitty gas mileage, go with the Hyper. Or better yet, get a supermoto.

 

you're gonna regret not having that '08 1000rr...sweetest bike

 

Damn Dude, I just saw this thread and I was like wtf? I had to go back and check your other thread to see what happened to the brand new cbr. Glad you are ok.
Good luck deciding. Shoot the cbr wasnt even broken in yet?

And on the track you can do this!!!!!!!!!!!
(if your ruben xaus lol)

 

Hypers rock. CBR1krrs rock. Sumos rock.
Get all of them.

Hope this helps.

 

go motard or some kind of spin off like the Hyper I was checking those out today! I gave up my sportbike 2 years ago and have not missed it ktms rock by the way

 

Flip a coin, I have a an 08 CBR as well and as you already know it rules, but damn, moto's/hypermotards do seem like a ton of fun on the streets. I kinda want both.

 

I've got a couple of two smoke 50s I'll make ya a deal on.

 

you are better buying this...

and using the rest of the money to buy a supermoto...drz, ktm, wr, etc etc

 

The Hyper is deathy cool....I really want to ride one. The tank range is horrid, but I guess that there's after market that can help that. No fairings.... I see it as more of a second bike. (depends upon your ride groove.)

Only bike, for all day rides, might be tough.

 

Hypermotard or KTM for sure. You need some variety, who wants the same old crap day in and day out?

 

My .02

http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/mcy/1708930796.html ($4200 "firm")

Total: $11500 (Less than a base model Hypermotard, new)

You can have both, even though the CBR is an '06 (with 1600 miles!!). And those Husky's are very capable motards.

FWIW, I've ridden the KTM 950SM and the Hypermotard, they are both very fun bikes, but not really "supermoto's" They are styled after them, but not nearly as light. The DRZ is also very capable, and about as reliable as a Honda, so don't count that out in your search either.

 

that husky is sexy.. but unless your really good at daily oil changes, its a race only bike.

Even the 510 eats oil.. you could always add an oil cooler.. but those bikes are high strung and aren't meant to hammer out hundreds of miles.. (the 610 has a normal 3k service schedule)


On the other hand.. they ARE meant to rip the fucking heart out of 10's of miles.

:mrgreen:

 

CBR is my vote.

 

Screw it man. Get one of those BEE EM WOBBLIES!

Then let me ride it.
