I have slightly mixed feelings about this: a) I know it's a personal thing but I really like the looks of it. b) I abso-fucking-lutely hate the characteristics of the Ducati engine! I won't be in the queue! B
I know what you mean, I hate the angle they have the engine at, I think a twin should be inline like the Bonny. I was quite taken with the new 899, until I sat on one at the show, it's so aggressive the riding position, I couldn't see me riding it far.
We took a Panigale to Germany this year.. Both guys who were riding it moaned about the comfort and the heat from the exhaust when riding it slowly.... It was however a totally mental bike, just over shadowed by the HP4 we had as well.... Although I quite like the look of the bike it's just too extreme and my money's still on the S1000r sport.
Think I'll give it a miss I did have a test ride of the 2013 Multistrada and really liked it ...... But it's Italian and there is just too many bad experiences to go down that route again
