I have a 2006 SD with a Rottweiler air intake, the o2 stuff taken off and Yosh pipes. I am seriously considering getting a 2015 SD R. I would like to hear from those who have ridden both bikes.

1. I want better suspension and handling. I am used to great handling bikes like the Honda CBR 1000, 2015 R1, etc. The '06 SD suspension I have never
been able to get set up so that I don't get big jolts. And the bike although it turns in very fast with the wide bars, never feels as confident inspiring
as my other fast bikes.

What is the difference in ride between the new SD and the 990?

2. Wind Blast.
I generally don't like naked because I like to ride very fast and the wind blast can get very annoying. the '06 SD with the KTM touring windscreen is right at the
edge of what I am comfortable with. How is the wind blast on the 2015? The same? Better? Are there good aftermarket wind screens?

3. I imagine the new SD is much faster than the 990. That said, with the above mods, the 990 rips.
On the 2015, can you flash the ECU? Does Rottweiler make an airbox? Is it recommended?

4. Buzz...I have read there is some buzz on the new bike. Is it more so than the 990? I want to be able to ride for hours
so lot's of bar buzz isn't good.

5. Tuono...reviews seem to prefer it...anyone ridden both? Aprilia makes great bikes and the new Tuono just doesn't visually appeal to me, however,
if it has a better suspension, motor, etc, I need to know...any honest answers here on the KTM board from someone who has ridden both?

You're going to get the search police in on this one dude. All your questions have been answered multiple time on threads with probably the same titles.

But, since i upgraded form an 06 to a 15 I feel a little compelled to at least say this:

1. It's more updated. Is better than 06. Feels even more nimble.
2. Much better than 06 but you cant get away from it on a naked. Seat is comfier on 15.
3. No comment. Come on. At least try search this one.
4. No buzz unless you start playing with bar end weights and new bars
5. Cant comment and dont really care. I'm too happy lifting the front wheel off the ground in 3rd.
