Actually, I don't believe that the 1098 is that poorly designed - ok, so maybe you don't NEED to have one to ride the road, but I think the 1098 is not at all comparable with a the BiOrb tank range. [I'm assuming no pillion passenger - for THAT you do not want ANY form of Ducati sports model - at least if the pillion passenger is a reasonably mature human].2wheelsx2 wrote:I totally agree with you Mats. But we both know that's not how it works. If that's the case, no one would ride a 1098 on the street. They'd be all on Vstroms, if function ruled over form all the time.
Of course, a Kawasaki beats both ;)
