BD,

Do you know if there is any technical difference and what makes this a prototype?

Well it is a "prototype" because it is not in production and still under testing and development. But man that’s one sweet bike...

I think I like it so much because it looks a lot like the big hit with a virtual pivot point.

Hahaha...my question wasn't what prototype means. More what is different then the v10. I found out a bit more on ridemonkey after asking though.

Dead sexy bike thats for sure. And yeah...it does look like a bighit except for the funky monocue

Oh come on A2. What's your fascination with and 11 inch travel bike. There's hardly even any hills that tall in Florida :D

I could almost imagine some people following that truck down the road just to look at that bike.

Ok. time to go. Can't use posting a message as an excuse to look at the picture.

dont get me wrong, i like the normal V10 more, as a matter of fact i am considering one ...a year from now... i hope that they either dont discontinue it, and/or the price of demo9 goes down

Same fascination with Victoria Secret models. I may never need one, but they're nice to admire!

It will take a few years but eventually the prices will come down. Maybe not for the v10 but the demo9 will be priced like the bighits in 2 or 3 years.
