As some of you may know I had a lot of trouble with my 2013 hyperstrada that I got last March. I put 14,500 miles on it until I sold it in February of this year to get a 2014 R1. I love Asian bikes as they are dominately more reliable, but I have realized I had more fun on my hyper.
During the time I owed the bike the top triple bearing seal was replaced, my ecu / dash was replaced, my front rotors & all brake pads replaced, my kickstand sensor replaced, & my throttle assembly replaced all under warranty. The bike was an ultimate lemon.
When it ran properly it was the most fun I've ever had. The dealer told me I simply got unlucky with my bike, but that's not understandable for someone who has almost 100,000 miles on a motorcycle & all of their bikes being Asian made. I'm only 25 & I don't ride like a complete jerk, so idk why all this happened to me.
I do want to buy another though but want to know if there are any of you with suggestions to if 2014 is better than 2013 & if my bike was just the one bad one. Maybe some of you have more miles than 14,500 on yours and I want to know how it's holding up for you.
Seriously looking to get another, so do your best to help me, but be honest.
