    Lamb Chops does a little comparison video on you tube. They are both amazing/bonkers bikes I guess it just depends on which one you think looks better. I think the SD is suited to taller riders and has that supermoto riding position (according to LCR as i haven't ridden the SD). The Tuono is more of a sportbike position, especially lower body. Its actually very similar to the Triumph Speed RS I rode before I bought the MT 10.

    Not ridden the Tuono, but the Super Duke is a brilliant riding position, I'm 6' 2" and I can just get both feet flat on the floor whilst sat on the bike (obviously, unless it's a Stella Artois day and I struggle to keep my feet on the floor no matter where I am o_O)
