I swapped my bike!

[Edward_Wolf]

I had a black Monster 796, nice bike, but a guy from my ducaticlub wants to swap my monster for his superbike 848. I said ok, let's do this , very nice bike. A little bit to fast  (got pulled over by the cops when i was driving 172 km/h, lost my license for 2 weeks). Ok this was a wrong swap, bike is to fast for me, so I called my dealer. He told me i could swap the 848 for a used Hypermotard 1100s (special edition bayliss with 4K km on it). I had to pay a little surplus. So I'm driving a HM1100s now and I really like it, even more then my monster. It got lots of torque and a huge funfactor.
After driving 15 years with different monsters I fall in love with a Hypermotard  [moto]

I predict the HM will also be bad for your license-retention.

Edward, if I am not mistaken, you got your M796 a few months back right?  So that's 3 different bikes in what, less than 4 months??? 

I got my M796 about a week ago, don't think I will swap it any time soon 

Have fun on you HM  [moto]

y, got it around april, did drive 8k km with it, but if someone wants to swap a more expensive bike for mine I'll go for it
I really liked my Monster 796, but I adore the Hyper 1100s, especially the "S" and ofc the more wheelietorgue . The 848 bike was just a 4 week replacement until I got my HM. When the guy asked me to swap his 848 for my M796 i called my dealer and asked what he could give me for the 848. The offered the HM1100s for a little surplus. I didn't wanted to to keep the 848, it was fun to ride but I couldn't drive slow with it especially on the highway.
