What can I say? Absolutely gutted, and I'm well aware I will regret the decision for years to come, but it's looking like I'm going to have to put the SD up for sale in the coming weeks

Dude, I'm gutted for you. I've been made redundant twice in the last three years and am currently on contract, praying for renewals, so I have the constant fear of being unable to financially justify my bike(s)... but I'd rather sell a kidney than lose the only thing in my life that I'm actually in control of.
Hope it get's sorted soon, and we'll see you back in black n orange.

Grendel has been in your exact place before. Very very hard to make the decision. You might look at raising funds with out actually selling your bike. Just last month Grendel went through his garage and picked up a bunch of bike stuff he did not use and eBay'd it all and raised $1200. You would be surprised. The SD will not raise you as much money are you think (used bike sales are very soft).
Hope you can work out an alternative. But if not, you will be the first in line to get the new version in 2013!!

That sucks dude.
In these times of economic uncertainty and austerity, expensive toys may have to take a back seat.

I do have every intention of getting back on a Superduke when I can afford to, in a year or two, possibly on a 1200cc one....

Man I'm really sorry to hear this. I feel for you and I'm actually in a very similar situation as well. Bought mine in May and got layed off in June. I was totally blind sided by that. Fortunately, I have a few promising prospects lined up and if for some reason that doesn't work out, I'm planning on becoming a porn star so...
P.S. Don't tell my wife.

Only thing you could get that would approach the fun factor is a cheap ass supermoto. Some old dirt bike conversion that no one would steal. The millennium falcon of the supermoto world.
