Hi All,
Currently ride a BMW S1000XR, but due to recently having a child, my car completely shitting the bed & spending money redecorating for said new baby I'm having to sell it and 'downsize' bike to release some cash.
I've always been interested in hypers, but never tried one, as you can probably guess I'm lining up to try and buy a used Hyperstrada 821.
I was considering this change of bike before needing to release some cash anyway as my riding will change drastically, no longer can i do long weekend tours to Scotland on the mile munching weapon that is the S1000XR, I'm after something to better suit irregular fun blasts for a few hours (& at more legal speeds) but still with a bit of comfort and practicality for occasional commutes to the office (I work from home).
Anyway, I hope to lurk the forum & find out as much as I can before purchasing a bike & i'm hoping to have time to nip into Ducati Manchester sometime soon to test ride a hyper.
Thanks all!
