You wont regret it!
A second wheel set is a must for dualsport bikes in my opinion. (unless you are lucky enough for a specific offroad dualsport and a second bike just for street supermoto)

I'm interested to hear your review of them - had one guy tell me they didn't last as long as the Excels and weren't quite as sturdy.

Depends upon what kind of riding is being done.. From the sm side - if it's just street riding with a bit of curb jumping the warp's will be fine.. If you planning on SM racing it and putting in the air allot, they are know to crack after heavy use....

And it is under about 2' of snow with a 1" gravel base right now. :lol2:

Take a look here:

for a taste of supermoto heaven. The pics barely scratch the surface of the cool stuff we rode that day.

It's wherever you make it :ride: As I've worked on my ride every road goal I've discovered so many roads that are superbly twisty...... Just look at Google earth for a bit and you will be amazed at what is in your back yard.

But I digress, on my way to set the MD ADV tag in the most SW corner of MD in Kempton I encountered some incredible roads right in mdubya's back yard and had it not been snowing at the time there were dozens of other little side roads I so wanted to explore.
