Superbike VS. Supermoto

Hi All,

Put this out on another forum but thought I should see what you think as been as you are all from London.

I am thinking of chopping my GSXR in for a SUMO of some sort. Prob a Husaberg or something.

Do you think this could be:

a. Cheaper running costs in the long run
b. better for commuting around the city
c. Better for me to ride due to be a newbie rider

I just dont think I am doing what the GSXR is capable of and to use it just as a commuting bike seems a bit like I am depriving it of some sort lol.

I really dont want to get the normal GS500 or ER6 for commuting as I want something to have fun on too.

What you guys think?

there tons more fun for comuting and honing about but they aint cheap to keep running, especialy a husabang!!! they require frequent rebuilds and love or they will go bang. get a ktm lc4 or ccmr30 or Honda fmx if you want reliable and low maintenance moto

I have a sumo. Drz400sm loads of bit’s done to it. Cheap to maintain especially compared to KTMS and huskys etc.

DRZ brings a smile to my daily commute’s all the time! Love it. However insurance is due soon and I want to try out a supersport’s now hehe
