Anyone that can tell the different of riding the 950 SM vs the SuperDuke?

SM = Supermotard
SuperDuke = Streetfighter

But is the different really all that much?

the big diff is the engine the 990 is fuel injection which makes a world of difference,the 990 is better at mountain rounds, the 950 sm for touring and hooliganism

What about suspension?
Does the Duke take the bumps and rough roads as good as the SM?
I would thing the Duke has more load on the front wheel....?

Read about a person trying out his 950 SMR on a racetrack where they raced with SuperDuke`s R and he said that he managed to follow the SuperDuke`s most of the track, even on the longest straight distance, the SuperDuke`s did not manage to overtake his SMR.
That is good news for the SM since the SM most likely is a lot better on dirtroads...
