Hello.
Has anyone owned or currentlly own a Supermoto?
Thinking of trading my K6 Gixxer in for a Supermoto for the summer. It's partly an attempt to slow myself down, but I've always loved them.
I'm looking at either a KTM 640 or a CCM.
I use my bike every day, wind or rain, for commuting - approx 25 miles each way. 50% of the journey is full throttle motorway, and 50% is typical London filtering.
Can anyone answer the following:
Are they cheaper to insure than sports bikes?
Are they generally easier to ride in traffic?
What are they like for distance riding?
Do they need any/high maintenance?
Can you cruise easily on them or is it all continuous torque?
How economical are they compared to a sports bike?
Cheers
