It feels like we’ve been waiting for SWM’s Superdual for yonks. Ever since we first saw the RS650R we’ve been mooning around like lost sheep nibbling at every little web pic and rumour about the adventure-ready Superdual. It’s here at last, and first impressions are good.
Where the RS650R was a dead-set trail bike – and a good one – the Super dual comes in an adventure guise. The RS650R can be transformed into a good adventure machine using the catalogue of aftermarket accessories from brands like Force Accessories, Seat Concepts, Safari tanks and a stack more, but the Super dual rolls off the dealer floor adventure-ready.
Sharing the same grunty 600cc engine, Mikuni throttle body and GET ECU as the RS650R, the Super dual is likely to grunt and rip with the best of them. But from the mechanicals on up on the Super dual has its own styling.
Next step
Equipped with Fast Ace forks that feature compression and rebound adjustment, and an adjustable Sachs shock with remote pleload adjuster, the Super dual is as ready for the dirt as it is the tar. The remote pre-load adjuster allows the rider to compensate for the extra load of pillion or luggage, and a simple dial adjuster beneath the seat on the left side of the bike couldn’t be easier to use.
