He has 2 leftover 2010's on sale for $8,795 otd. Which is a hella good deal since the Monster is like $12 otd. I sat on it and it was kinda weird being so tall and skinny, but when I got my feet up on the pegs, it felt nice and comfortable. Of course its good in the twisties, but how is it on long stints or highway runs? Are you kind of a parachute up there being up so tall?

Styling is ok, I kinda like the Monster more. I really need to see if they will let me test them both.
it's probably like a dual sport; the wind beats you up pretty good on long trips. I deal with it though, and still want a hyper.
