Bye Bye Bike
if you must, turn from the beast on the streets (08/09 1krr) and lean toward the Italians well go for the 09 1198...what a masterpiece! Even though i must say from experience the 1098 is the closest thing to a motogp machine on the streets 
But really the 1198 is a pure race bike, 170bhp stock, lighter than 1098, new face lift, looks beautiful in white lol ...price hmmm...$16,495 (worth it)

From what I hear on the Ducatis you have to ride them WOT or they dont stay tuned long, from the factory they are tuned for racing. All the guys that I know that have gotten ducatis love them except for having to keep them tuned.
