Well I have no budget really G as the RSV will be sold to fund it and all brand new ones are coming in no more than 5-6k. I want a proper supermoto and not a commuter and because I don't know alot about them I'm asking you wise men/women, it has to stand up to abuse though ____________________ GSX 1400 K5 SOLD

Keep it in the family...
The current hot ticket is the Aprilia SVX 450 twin. Nice and light, compact and powerful. 6k brand new, but i reckon you could pick one up somewhere cheaper.

I believe the 525 is lighter and isn't far off on power comapred to the Aprilia either; and I believe the 525 makes peak power lower down.
The aprilia isn't too light, though is supposed to be quite a good package. Service intervals still aren't too great - it also has it's roots in a competition bike.
Husaberg do pretty decent supermotos, though I seem to hear about them going bang a bit.
If you want a real man's bike...

Thought they did a supermoto; I'm sure someone would convert one for you .
And yes; that's a 700cc 2 stroke! Can I have a go if you get one? Pleaaaaassseeee? |

Dear god, that things a beast. Yes, lets be having a go if someone buys one of those .
Anyway, the Aprilia is obviously a decent package as it beat down the rest and won the supermoto championship this year. So it's performance is no at all in question or doubt. I also would hesitate at calling any bike that weighs 120 kilos wet heavy. ____________________ Bikes: too many, too much for one man to maintain anyway. |

Buy my SV650 race bike (with V5) and have a better bike for road use than any of the other supermotos, but with the easy to use wide range of torque.
Sorted . |
