I'd say let's go ride, and I'm totally good with that, except I am still breaking things in and don't want to go on any extended freeway rides. It's the opposite now. I can make multiple trips over Tantalus & love it. When she's all broke in...

Possible but not sure just yet. This may take a couple three or four months to figure out. In the short long run I can only keep one. The 701 needs a few performance mods to boost it's presence. The SD is not happy on Tantalus or even 13 Turns. It's OK through Norfolk but the 701 is hands down better through all three, by a long, long shot. At issue will be the trade off on all other places so I expect it will be a close comparison and a hard decision. Our general traffic and road conditions are steadily worsening and making it less fun. The first rule of motorcyling is that it has to be fun.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

There's a distinct difference between bikers and motorcycle riders.

I took the Superduke out today for the 1st time in two months. Whoa! Serious machine and a whole lot harder to ride than the supermoto. Up the Pali into town & out H1 to Pearl City. Turned around and came back over on H3, out to the Marine base, back to Enchanted Lakes for gas and home. It literally took the whole ride distance for me to start getting used to it and comfortable with it. Dang!
