So I'm taking the plunge and probably buying a 2008 hypermotard a with 2500 miles no damage and a termi exhaust. I had a couple questions for those of you who may be versed in hypermotard though. First off, I'm looking at pics on Craig's list and the dealer doesn't know if it's a full exhaust or just slip on. It's only got one pipein the pics and I can't find any termi kits with one pipe that weren't full exhausts. Bike seems to be in great shape bu anything specific I should look out for when checking out the bike? Obviously I'll look at the regular stuff but anything hyper specific? 

Also, anyone want a modded 01 monster s4 or 06 ktm 625 Smc? Lol

Links to the CL post or photos would be helpful to answer your exhaust question. But, a Hyper with just slip ons will have have a  collector under the swing arm pivot (ish). Its a boxy bit. If it has a full system, or had a replacement mid-pipe added then it'll just have tubing running - no boxes.

Check out the mirrors - make sure they are solid and move properly. The flex mounts were not the most sturdy creation ever. Remember it'll need new belts, but as a Duc owner you probably know that.
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

Yeah that's a full system. You should buy that bike if the price is right.
