Now that would be worth seeing. I'm just jealous coz I can't even get my knee down with two hands on the wheel.

Well I could, but I'd have to go through that very painful leg lengthening operation that they give dwarfs these days......
He's already got a KTM supermoto. One hooligan machine is enough, thank you very much!

that don't look like a standard exhaust - been de-catted and all.

I think you might be spot on there as it seems to be missing a can, unless he'd binned it earlier in the day and lost one....

If it's Xaus he very probably binned it and lost the zorst! The only Ducati on our Tuesday night ride outs lost it's exhaust then it's lights on another so what do I do I buy a Ducati. All the others were rice burners and nothing happened to them. Oh and the guy nearly binned it on a bend when a rabbit ran into his front wheel.
They had the DP zorst system on the 'S' for the press launch.
There's a short vid on the mcn site...HypoRetard Launch Vid (http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/newsresults/mcn/2007/May/may7tomay14/may0907hypermotardvideo/)
Ruben's the man, that's a great pic! Once your knee's on the deck and the back's sliding, it's not hard to take a hand off the bar!

I'll have to take your word for that :hail: :hail:
Shandy, the hard bit is getting the back sliding!
I've only ever done it by accident, realised it wasn't a big deal and kept it going. I don't have the balls to do it at will tho!!
I want a Motard. I want one NOW.

xaus is a BIG feckin legend. and got a fit wife too. :D
as for the hypermotard i think it looks gorgeous but think the whole heavy engine thing is against the supermoto philosophy of foolish chassis nimbleness. personally id go for a lighter ktm or aprilia ;)
ps shandy sorry to hear bout your off ! wish you the soonest recovery man !
