Is this more as an in-City bike or a twisties bike or both? I assume it's not a long distance rider, but needs to be freeway capable.

In-city and Mt. tam loop bike. i.e a few hours of Twisties + 15 mins of freeway.

Hell, that's 99% of the riding I do these days.

SMC

I haven't ridden a 400 single, but try one on the freeway before buying.
I'm thinking it'll be pretty wheezy.
Depends what kind of 'freeway' riding you're talking; heavy fast slice-and-dice traffic, or....

S. F. more $$ but..! you know..!

The S.F. is the last bike I'd ever need. Because it'd ill me.

Curious, why the SMC and not the Duke? Obviously more suspension travel on the SMC, but is it worth the high ride height?

When you jump that first middle school staircase, yeah. It's worth it.

Yeah DM needs something inexpensive cuz he'll be shelling out for MUNI passes once his license gets yanked.

Awesome jump!

Does everyone have the SuperMoto bug or what these days?! Stop giving DQ ideas. He needs a bigger stable for the growing fleet, and that ain't happening any time soon.
