Common sense keeps telling me "keep the Hyper - it's a really good all rounder", but I can't help being drawn to used, low mileage v4 factories. The depreciation from new is pretty insane (v4 Streetfighters don't seem to depreciate nearly as much) and I find myself fighting temptation to trade in.
Pros: That paint(!) TFT, fancy suspenders, more power than I would ever know what to do with, one of the best sounding bike engines, ever + I think the bike is really handsome.
Cons: heat, heat heat. (prone to overheating when not moving. Operating temps of 215F - 220sF is not uncommon). Said power = probably more tickets. Dealer network is not as robust as Ducati (at least where I live.)
As a potential 1 bike garage, I am crazy?
