An SVX for regular folks

This kind of looks like a Shiver dressed up to look like a motard. Maybe it's got some longer service intervals.

Thoughts?

The Shiver's dry weight is 420 lb... unless they put that thing on a major diet, it's going to be one heavy supermoto.

Then again, so is the Hypermotard, and people are still buying it.

The Dorsoduro has a longer swingarm and longer forks. It's definitely going to be a heavy sucker and likely compete with the Hypermotard.

It has the right look. I question it being more of a styletard vs a motard.

I don't even question it, but it still looks fun to ride! :teeth

Oh damn that's good.
Yeah there's nothing "motard" about a hypermotard, but the bike looks cool, and from what I've read is fun to ride.
I'm not a big duc fan, but this bike could be cool too.
