Stumbled on the Supersport S video. I like the real world experience videos and thoughts. Thank you. Hoping to get my old ass in the saddle of an S someday.
I had the exact same reaction when I test rode a 950 Supersport S demo bike, incidentally from the same dealer from whom you recently bought your Panegale . I knew within five miles that I had to have one and luckily there was a second hand one in white on the forecourt when I got back. Needless to say the deposit was paid before I left! I did have a 'moment' when subsequently watching your video about the servicing costs when you mentioned that they all needed new chains and sprockets around 13,000 miles. However when I picked the bike up I noticed that these had been replaced. It has now slowly dawned on me that I think I bought your old bike! I am now going to watch all your old videos again with renewed interest!
Why did you sell it??? Everyone speaks wonders but i see so many with ultra low mileage pop up on dealers. 😢 it is the only question stopping me from getting into one.
I was surprised they let you take the Ducati out too; given what you rode in on….(oh, I am just kidding. There are so many bikes I would like to have. And, like addict, I like Ducati’s a lot (need deep pockets for sure)
I'm a Short Rider too 😁 and as you know seat hight it's most important for me...can you tell me more about that(seat hight on SuperSport) and eventually ask you to test the new SuperSport950...thx a lot✌
The official seat height on my Supersport S is 82cm, and I have a 'jeans' leg length of 31cm and can get my feet down comfortably. Of course its not just about seat height, but also about the shape of the seat - and the Supersport has a nice deep shaped seat which is easy to plant your feet with. I love it - and a lot easier to reach the ground than on my GS310 (even with the low ride seat fitted). I've noted to book a ride on the Supersport 950 as soon as the lockdown rules allow it! Thanks for watching.
It certainly looks it and I was about to book a test ride on one - but it sold before I got there. so I will definately look to try one out! Thanks for watching.
