I will save Skynet from Sarah Connor

Got in a few miles on the 450 yesterday morning. It was supposed to rain all day but was clear in the morning.

I woke up, skipped breakfast to save time and got right on the bike.

I love that thing.

I just laughed so hard at this.  I assumed that was fake but after review I think it's likely be real.  Makes me think of what George Mallory said when prompted why he was trying to climb Everest: Because it's there.

KTM 800 Duke on the way.  110hp and only $11.5k USD, according to rumors in the article below.  Might entice me off my monster, since current monsters aren't my cup 'o tea.

And if anyone sprachens Deutche, pics of the full article (in German) are on advrider:

They have been talking about these twins all year. I believe it's in an earlier post.

I couldn't stay away after selling my 2010 SMT...so here's my new-to-me 2013 SMT. Such a great bike!

Those SM-Ts really are nice bikes.  Any idea of they use the same subframe as my MkII Superduke?

Never mind. Doesn't look like it.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Shush you.  All of the 990 bikes use the same frame with minor tweaks.  It would be nice to be able to use that subframe on the SD and have an easy fix to mount hard bags.
