Am off to sunny Majorca on Thursday where Ive hired a supermoto for the week :twisted:

However having never ridden one I thought Id see if any of you peeps had any super riding advice or is it much like the SV?

Cheers Scubini

Err I know its a bike but Ive heard they require a different riding style to other types of bike.

I'm not showing off :roll:

Scubini...Ride it just as you normally would mate. The different technique is only when you want to large it up by sliding the rear end in turns. I doubt whether you would be daft enough to try that when wearing your straw hat, flip flops and have a toy donkey under your arm. :wink: 8)

I'm sure you are right there but have been assured it will come on quality 17" rubber if not I ain't paying!
