Well I just got my open class license and went and test rode some bikes before I came across the SuperDuke.
Mate it was like a glove! perfect seat height, great position when riding oh and all that torque. Not to mention flickable and doesnt feel heavy till you try and push it around lol
Anyway I had a test ride on teh Saturday. Couldnt stop thinking about it and went in for another teast ride to make sure it wasnt just a one off feeling and laid down my deposit.
Picked up the bike on Friday after work and put 700kms on the clock in the first weekend. Very hard not to go over the 6.5k rpm mark when she just wants to keep going.
All I can say is I am in love and suprised you dont see more of them here in Perth. Saying that there are three at my work lol
Anyway just wanted to say hi and I'll see you around. Getting some Akras put on after the first service which will mos likely be monday.
Some Pics from my 2nd day with the SuperDuke
Oh and no I am not going to ask how to post pics.

Thanks for the welcome guys.
Jus got some stonechip protection fitted so will see how that works on my next country ride this weekend.
I am a bit of a track whore (7 times this year) so it's great to hear its gonna be even more fun on the SD!
Here are some pics of me at the track on my Honda VTR250. Hopefully next year I'll have some pics of he SD at the track.
And this is my my favorite overtaking an R6 around the left hander!
Needless to say she got a little upset but I think it was more the fact that she got overtaken by a Big fat dude on a 250
now to go and make a list of the mods I plan to do to this fine machine.
Oh and did I say I love this bike!
