Boo ya! This bike has been big news all over the internet all week. It sure reads good on paper, I hope it turns out to be as sweet of a bike as it seems.

Love it. Thinking about selling the gixxer 600 for the deposit of the 1098.

Problem is that I don't think I can handle all that torque and the attention.... I kinda like being low profile....

the base model 1098 is under 15k promised to me from my local dealer OTD. I am thinking heavily now.

Saw one on the Pig Trail Sunday. It is awesome looking. Too bad the owner was a snobbish tool.

I've been reading so much about this bike. Sort of resembles the 996 in the front.

I have to go to the dealer anyway, so will make sure I take a good look.
