Yeah, it's cool as hell, but I still can't help cringing at the thought of the punishment that the suspension internals are getting - mostly that "landing" picture where both ends are bottomed out and the front tyre squished flat. It almost looks like the rim is flexing slightly. Worth it though FlyinDoc fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Sep 3, 2009 |

No mention of weight reduction NCR managed to shave 42Kg off the weight of the standard hypermotard, despite putting in a larger engine making 42Hp more than standard (NCR Leggera Course 1200 if anyone wants to look it up and drool - it's what the hypermotard should have been, even if just the weight). It saddens me that manufacturers come up with large capacity "motards" and naked versions of their sportbikes, the bulk of which somehow end up being significantly heavier than their faired counterparts.

Yeah, I understand that the pricing gets silly quite quickly, it just always gets to me that Japanese maufacturers can make such lightweight sportbikes and do so at a low-to-reasonable price - whilst on the other hand, Japanese naked bikes, and the range of European large capacity "motards" all seem to somehow end up heavier than you'd expect in comparison.
