After having a wicked time throwing myself around the English countryside on my beloved 950SM, I just couldn't resist having a go on a Superduke t'other week. Turned out to be a rather costly test ride because I absolutely loved it and had to have one!
Ended up putting my money down on a "nearly new" 08 SDR, simply because it looked like it'd bite your face off if you got too close (ie. brilliant), and also I'm planning on doing more track days in future, and I think it'll kick ass on track, even with me on it.
Nice fella from P&H delivered it today for my first proper blast and all I can say is fark moi, it's fantastic! The thing is a bloody weapon! Yes the throttle is delicate but the way it spins up and comes alive after 5k rpm is amazing. And the chassis incredible. It really does feel like a genuine race bike! Woohoo!!!
Now, if it just stopped bloody raining...
