What do you like about that bike better than the Hypermotard?

The 750 is a better engine for a motard than an 1100.
And it does not come with the Ducatista's.

Do not get me wrong, I have spent a good bit of time recently up close and personal with the Hypermotard.
I have not gotten it on the road yet, but have done my fair share of petting and sitting.
The Hypermotard is a brilliant machine!
If I were creating my dream machine from scratch, it would be the Hypermotard with a 450 engine without an Italian name.

I've tested a few of those big tards. Not the Aprilia - but some of the others mentioned.

What they do for me is make me appreciate how good the Ulysses is.

I haven't loaded mine up with 'farkles' so I can ride it almost as extreme as the big tards - and then turn it into a touring bike with a passenger if I want to.

Nice but how much does it weigh??

For me a motard needs to be light.

The Hype-tard is too heavy for me. Might as well get an STT.

for me I drool over the 3 H's of sumo.

Honda
FMX650 359lbs ***not sold in US


Husky(BMW owned)
510smr 260lbs


and my fav
Husaberg(KTM owned)

Those bikes do look stupidly fun. A bit narrowly focused as an only bike, but a grin machine for sure.

Big bucks, but I found this thing quite sick too.

Talked to the owner of the local Duc shop last night.
He is pretty sure they will have multiple motards within the next year.
