Hi neighbor, only one in my small town of 50k, Walla Walla Washington, tri-citiies has a few though.

The weather made me move back here, UW grad.
You see quite a lot in London and the South East. There are quite a lot of dealers and they have a great reputation as both urban hooligan tool and sports bike slayer. Also the favourite get-away bike of choice for smash and grab jewelry store robberies. So they also are favourite bikes to steal off the streets, I was told last year they were being stolen to order from central London. You can't win them all!

Not common like Gixers though. They still have a certain exclusivity.

(Edit. Just read that SuperD had his SDR stolen yesterday from his home. Two chains and a disc lock didn't stoop them.)
Awesome. Nice to see someone has some taste East of the mountains.
I ride with two others (mostly one other) SD in Phoenix Arizona. I have seen a SDR parked at the strip club up the street once and know of another that is black as well. My dealer has 2 used and 2 new 07/08 SD on the showroom floor. I hope someone buys on that way I can find another riding buddy.

I've seen four here and ride with two of those. We have a couple of good dealers so it's surprising that I don't see more (only a couple of RC8's as well). IMO bike riders are a bit conservative and just follow the pack - that's why BMW have started making their thou - to be like the Japanese IL4's. If I was in charge of KTM marketing I'd be running a campaign along the lines of "letting the secret out - ultimate hoon bike"...

getting too damn common. I always see one or two at the rock store or angeles crest.

found out last year a neighbor 5 blocks away owns one.
2 Superdukes near me, one white with evos and an orange one that I believe is Argie750's (he rarely posts) never met either of them but was behind them both and a few others non SD's they were riding with at work the other day and was going to pull them all over and say hi, did not think they would have been to impressed though.....
In Liverpool where I live theres only me & my mate who bought my old one.
Saw quite a few parked up at Oulton park on monday
Very rarely see one on the road, I ride M3 or A30 into Central London most days and it's all BM's and scooters

Never seen another sd on my travels , Apart from neil my mate who sold his Triumph street triple and bought a sd after having a blast on mine.
There's quite a few here in Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
I know of about 7 in our neck of the woods.
Gee almost as common as Gixers
