$10,999.00 MSRP http://www.apriliausa.com/motorcycle...o-750-abs.html So we're not getting the Hyperstrada anymore in the US. How's the Dorsoduro stack up as a replacement? Seems capable off-road... https://youtu.be/UCqDMdWbn6M Last edited by philthymike; June 2nd, 2017 at 05:45 AM. |

Sweet looking bike, but that fuel tank capacity makes me sad. I suspect it'd be a great bike for commuting and weekend rides, but not much for longer adventures.

The HS isn't exactly well endowed in the tank dept. either. I just realized I linked to the webpage for the Dorso 750 ![]() The MSRP is correct for the 900 though, I found that on a local dealership's site. I really like the 3L TANK SIDEBAG KIT available for it. Wish I had something like that for the HS. Last edited by philthymike; June 2nd, 2017 at 08:52 AM. |

Rolling into Crater Lake NP after having the low fuel light on for roughly 70 miles was about as much range anxiety as I can handle :-) That said, I'm sure the Dorsoduro would be a blast to ride. |

Hehehe range anxiety. I like that. I would have pooped myself in your shoes. ![]() The Dorsoduro is pretty nice on paper. Would love to hear some experiences from owners. |
