I am not a fan of gold forks or silver anything, BUT…if I had the funds, hmmm. I think it’s a nice upgrade. Not perfect, but the second gen semi active suspension has impressive reviews. I could maybe live with the silver and gold. 😆
Just an added thought. You can get a ‘23 for list, no added fees. But if you want the SP, I had a dealer tell me that it’s a $2000 mark up, usually. Take it with a grain of salt, of course. Lowest price I could find only added $850 to the list $17k. Just an fyi. 🤔

To the question at hand, I was somebody that was dead set getting the MT-10SP if it came to America. I was all-in.
But the pandemic fucked everything up and has made buying a new car/motorcycle a stupidly expensive task.
Is it worth it? Not to upgrade I don't think. I can answer that question at least. To sell the Fz-10 and then deal with dealer markup, freight and delivery which you could sometimes get waived pre-pandemic, and paying taxes again. No. Not worth it.
I liked it better when you could get things below MSRP.

Sorry, I didn’t mean upgrade from a current 10, just an upgrade from the base model. I had to give up my bike last summer. I really miss it. I’ve looked at getting a new one, and the sp is an attractive option. If anyone has this bike, hopefully it is running well with no issues. Sorry for the tangent.  |

I liked it better when you could get things below MSRP. I was one too. Then I saw how bad they messed up the redesign and noped out. It's ugly AF. That on top of the scarcity, markups and other BS wasn't worth it. |

Count me as another who is opting out on an upgrade to the new model.
Like willl84 I am not a fan of the new look nor the price increase.
BUT
If I was in the market for a new bike the MT10SP would be first on my list.
Since I do a lot of track riding I feel like the upgrades the SP offers would be worth it.
