Set off on my annual bike trip(use all my vacation at once) My cooling system doesnt seem to be functioning. Bike is around 230F which I feel is interstate breeze. Coolant spitting out on my right leg every so often. I chamged the coolant a few weeks ago and havent ridden much since...

Excited to see these tires as they are yet another leap forward for traction when the roads are wet, last a reasonable time and offer sport bike grip. Too soon for any comparison tests, but they will come. Right now I only see the Angel GT II available at Revzilla...

Report will follow. I'm pretty pleased with the route. It is admittedly, ambitious. Day 1 SF -> Tonopah, NV - 385 miles...

Hi There, I just acquired an Hyperstrada 821 currently equipped with Michelin Road 4 tires. While these are fine for my commute in the city of Hanoi, i also intend to go offroad couple of times a year on bumpy and narrow (sometimes a bit muddy) mountain tracks in the North of Vietnam. I was...

So in a couple of weeks I'm taking the scenic drive up HWY 1 from Socal to SF. I'm heading up there for work for a few days, so I'm not sure I'll have free time to get out and ride, but if I do, and you are from up there, where should I try to go? Thanks in advance for any helpful ideas.

Update after 4000km (2500mi) on the tires. This includes roughly 700km (440mi) in heavy rain and hailstorms. What fantastic tires! I did a tour in the US, traveling from Canada to North Carolina (the infamous Tail of the Dragon) and back over 5 days. I went through torrential rain and...

I rode my hyper along the Cambodia Vietnam border for some 140 km along a dirt road . The road had water pods due to the rainy season , usually got stuck in the mud . The front fork is too short. the two leg stand is too low, it was ripped off completely. The read fender mud guard connection to...

I finally got a day to really ride the bike like it should be ridden.. I am really impressed. If you live close to St louis Mo and have ever owned a sport bike you probably know of DD going to Bixby Mo.. one of the best roads in Mo!!! I rode 335 miles today and love the bike. The handling is...

In early September I'm looking to head to Hervey Bay for a weeks R&R and to look at property. It's about 1400klms from Sydney to HB, and I'm planning to do it in two days (maybe three), over nighting (camping from the bike). Question....does anyone have a suggested route (I'm very happy to...

I know these have been mentioned in threads here already, but after putting a couple of hundred miles on these tyres I needed to just have a little rave about them. Absolutely AMAZING tyres, I've always been a fan of Michelin hoops but these are truly stunning and, IMO, a massive upgrade...

I have just completed a tour of Tasmania, Great Ocean Road and the Nullarbor Plain back to Perth in Australia. There were three of us on the ride, Pete on a Honda CB500X, Maurie on a 1975 Triumph Trident and me on my Hyper. We covered a total of 6,150km in three weeks. Tasmania is a well...

Hi everyone!! Just picked my new 2014 Red Hyperstrada yesterday...so it is a full stock one so far! I am from Spain, now living and riding around Madrid. Looking forward to enjoying and learning overhere...

Thinking about swapping the OEM tires for the Pilot Road 4s. Now that winter is approaching, I'll probably wait until the spring thaw to throw them on. But everything I've read, they sound like they transform the experience and are an awesome tire in every respect. Curious if anyone has put...

A friend and I went off roading last Sunday. There is some trails near my house that go pretty far considering its Long Island. Lots of ruts, mud, jumps, hills. We ran into a few guys on quads out there who were pretty shocked we were so far into the trails. The hyper actually feels pretty good...

Check out the photography of Sundeep Gajjar (Sunny). Sunny does his Grand Aussie Road Trip on Multistrada, the focus of the site is the pictures of the Great Austrailian landscape and it's relationship to Sunny and the Multi and a few other riders; a pictorial ride report. Nice work Sunny...

I am starting a thread dedicate to those of us who (foolishly?) take our Hypers off the pavement. I am inspired by this dude who did the continental divide trail on a hypermotard: Gear | time to get rolling Let's talk suspension settings/mods, DTC and ABS setups, tires, post pics...
