Hi, I'm new to this forum and new to supermotos. I used to live in Honolulu untill about a month ago but now live on Guam. I have been on superbikes for the last 7 years and have racked up about 100,000 miles since I started riding in 2003. I have had two R6s and I currently ride a Ducati 1198. Riding in Hawaii was okay considering the size of the place but I fear Guam on a superbike is just going to get me into trouble. The way I see it I have two options, go cruiser, or go supermoto. Frankly, I'm not quite ready for a cruiser yet, so here I am.
First off, am I making the right decision to go supermoto? Secondly, how should I start this whole thing off? Guam is pretty secluded so I'm basically restricted to the Japanese four (please correct me if this is a wrong assumption). Do I buy a supermoto straight off the floor, which would have to be the Suzuki because I don't think a 250cc will do it for me, or do I spend a bit more and convert a mx bike? If I go mx, which one?
Thanks for reading and I appreciate any feedback that would point me in the right direction.
