And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

SuperDuke, the original.
Me and a bunch of buddies are going to the mountains this weekend for several days. I'm tempted to bring it but need to get to know its character a bit more.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Really digging this bike. Can't wait to put some proper tires on it. Lofted a nice little 3rd gear wheelie this morning on the way to work. [leo]

It's like a tiny devil on your shoulder constantly whispering to you, isn't it...

I didn't think I'd ever ride a bike I liked better than my Speed Triple but DAMN! This thing is so entertaining. I'm not sure how you could ever crash the thing. It rides like it's on autopilot. The fueling, suspension, brakes and transmission are a dream. [bow_down]

What mods have been done to it?  Does it still have the stock ecu map with the O2 and SAS enabled?

I've done nothing with it except put new tires on it. It has a power commander on it and beautiful Yoshi carbon fiber pipes. I also removed the stupid mirrors and bar risers.
