Coincidentally, I've been looking at Dorsoduro 750/900s recently but concluded that the 750 might be a bit underpowered and the 900 was a bit lardy and poorly suspended. This fixes all those misgivings at a stroke. I'd have that in a heartbeat.

Apart from looking pretty I'll freely admit that my Griso isn't brilliant either but I ain't never selling it until I can't ride it no more

Isn't a Dorsoduoro just a Shiver in a fancy frock?

My Kawasaki is pretty to look at, but it isn't great to ride, my Suzuki isn't pretty, but it really is a superb bike to ride, tbh I've found most women to be like this

Isn't a Hypermotard just a Multistrada without a frock?

No.Its a focused, fast motorbike ridden by very manly men!

Fixed.

I had a 750 Dorsoduro and I really liked it, apart from the crap range. The small tank and relatively poor fuel consumption meant that the fuel light would come on at 60-65 miles, not ideal in the wastelands of northern England & southern Scotland. It was much more comfortable than it looks, and fairly low geared so acceleration was ok but topped out at about 130.

I still refer to them using the name Supermofo gave them. Dinodildo.

Not really related, but the gf of one of my mates had a nickname for Joey Dunlop back in the 80s when we were all at the TT.

I was gobsmacked when she came out with 'Skippy Cuntflap'...
