First Ride On It !

  1. Picked up my hyper from “comfysofa” yesterday ..first chance to get on it tonight…pulls like a train and more grunt than a shed load of pigs!..don’t laugh but it reminds me of my first Harley (had what they call a stage 3 done ) it would show any sportbike the way up to about 75mph… wasn’t quite as nimble as the hyper though! Only did about 50 miles on it tonight.. a mixture of sweeping corners and fast straights…wasn’t going balls out but it felt really good and planted in the corners, on the straights didn’t go flat out but had it up to about 120mph, but it’s probably happier (so would my neck muscles be) sitting at 80-100 I’ll hopefully get out on it tomorrow and take it on some really twisty roads I’m expecting it to be a blast :upyeah: :Happy:

  2. Enjoy! You've got a cracking looking bike there
     
  3. Sounds like fun enjoy mate and ride safe :)
     
  4. Brilliant:upyeah:
    I would love one...I recon I could do a mainly twistys blast faster than I could on the 848:)
    I was all for chopping in the pocket rocket for one but today's blast made me fall in love again even though I couldn't get enough heat in the tyres to go balls out ..

    I will get one at some point soon though..I keep drooling at OYB..that means it's just a matter of time:D

  5. you will love it. The hyper is just the best fun ever. Its the perfect balance of weight speed and agility. enjoy
     
  6. I have had motards and still do but not with this kinda performance...
    Helmet choice will be my main consideration ...what are you guys wearing..pros cons?
     
  7. I have a Shoei NXR its a good lid but could do with being a little quieter, my GT Air was very quiet.
     
  8. Told ya! Pulls like a train doesnt it!

    Trouble is i cant find any streetfighters that fit the bill at the moment....
     
  9. Arai tour x4, great looking, removable peak but gets noisy over a ton

  10. Nexx carbon - great field of view and only 1.2kg which helps given the wind blast on the hyper.
     
  11. Hi Blairbiker,
    That's one sorted Hyper you have - enjoy! Comfy will be reading your posts and kicking himself for selling it.
    Cheers,
    Moses
