  3. From all the reviews I’ve read and seen (and that’s a lot), it looks like I’m in for a treat.
     
  4. Thank you so much for the warm welcome. The last motorcyle I tried - for an hour or so - was a Ducati 749 back in 2006. By far the most exciting thing I’ve ever done. Way more fun than the 2004 R1 which scared the s**t out of me. Since then I have lusted to ride a Ducati again. And now I’m finally here.

  10. I will be picking her up at the dealer on April 21st. And I cannot wait. As you may know, I haven’t even had the chance to take her out for a test ride. And I’m very curious as of what to expect. Just saw a video from a guy named Yammie Noob who stresses that if you are new to motorcycles (which I am) you do NOT buy a Hyper 950. Oh well. A little too late for that.

    I’ll make sure to give my first riding impressions. If she doesn’t kill me first

  11. You'll be fine, just take it easy as it will encourage hooliganism :bucktooth:

  13. Ahaha. Not quite. Took my drivers licence when I was 25 but at that age - while studying - insurance was crazy. And I hadn’t thought of buying a motorcyle for many years. Until I stumbled across the concept Hypermotard 950. And I knew then the time was right to buy my first bike. Better late than never.
