Hi to all! Due to this forum and the nice things about SD you've been writing I made up my mind to change from Z1000 Kawasaki to Superduke

I found it on EBAY in Italy COMO, went there last week by plane and bought the bike went to MONZA and put it on trailer. On the way there I poped into EZTUNING.IT shop and found the beautiful SD tuned versions also got a LAVIZZARI double exhausts for a sweet price.



So now you can congratulate me for being the first owner of SuperDuke in the country .





I really love the bike and handling - just miss the sound of 4cylinder and have to get used to the V-twin

This was my bike before Z1000 which was a good learning ground for wheelies - if you can pull up the 258kg bike with such a long chassy then every other bike seems a piece of cake for wheelies.



I also have now the quad bike which is fun for the period when weather conditions are not so good to ride 2 wheeled bike




This is a great forum for sharing ideas and getting info - a grear place and nice people.

I am from Latvia - Baltic States

Cheers,

Coolberg

To rifle:
I know what you mean about women in Latvia - we are lucky over here - one of the best men to women ration in the world (good choice for the guys) and yeah they are mostly beautiful. That is why I am married


That is my wife.

To ShadeTheChangingMan:
Yeah I liked the Z1000 very much - one of the best bikes for the money - very reliable and good fun. Duke is far better in handling and all the suspension and brake parts make a difference. Now I know that stopies are actually easy to do

But I liked the sound of the Z1000 alot with the Devil exhausts

To baggieman:
Lavizzari exhausts are nice. But when the buffles are taken out the sound tune is super great but the loudness is unberable. I cut the buffles smaller for looks and the sound is great now as well.

Being the first in Latvia with SD rules - but then the question of parts and accesories hits the mind
