The HP2 Sport is a better street bike. I don't spend that much time on the track anymore. In another year when the S1000RRR (or what ever) comes out, the value of the RR's will drop dramatically and will just be last years bad boy. The HP2 Sport will ALWAYS be a cool bike. = )
Makes perfect sense...

Being that the S1000RR is being sold in numbers the HP2S wasn't even meant to sell, the decrease in value will be accordingly. Much like the Japanese liter bikes... maybe a little better, but I doubt it.

I still have not ridden one, been invited plenty of times... have refused equally often. It's about twins for me. That, and real life application. And, somehow, some 190HP are not exactly within the range of every day applicability for me.

Welcome to the asylum.
