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

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?

Ride it like you stole it........

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.

Try the road on the north coast that goes down to a little village called Sa Colobra
