And I am in love!  Power everywhere, handles great, and his sooo beautiful, I must have one.  We had a nice test drive route through some twisties and I got to stretch her legs a bit, did I mention it was an "S" model?  Bike was unbelievable and I still have a smile on my face! 

I rode just about everything they had had including the 848, monster 1100, aprillia shiver and dorsoduro, and some moto guzi's.  The one that stood out the most to me besides the street fighter was the dorsoduro, it was a blast to drive and I'm considering picking one up, I didn't get a chance to ride the hypermotard.

If you don't mind - how tall are you? Reason I ask is that from sitting on it, I could see the front of the forks and I fear it's just too small for me (6'4").
Otherwise a modded black S would be interesting [moto] , but only if I could put on an old style front light and maybe a small fairing, and.... and ....
252,000 km/seventeen years - loving it

I'm 5'10, but I own an S2r800 as well, and there's more room on the Streetfighter.

If you didn't ride the Hyper than don't

That ride is super addictive.  [thumbsup]
Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

I can imagine, they say the dorsoduro rides pretty simular to the Hyper and I've been stalking it on the internet all day, trying to devise a plan to pick one up with out selling my duck.  I had a blast on it! Plus being a couple thousand less than the Hyper doesen't hurt either.
