+0.8. It feels 100 lb. lighter, but the F4i is a little roomier. It's outrageous though...

But you can't beat honda for reliability, so it is a toss up.

I think the 1000RR looks better in the flesh than in pictures ..most bikes do, but you are right, it's become a toss up now and modern sport bikes are so good it's just down to personal preference and the current colour scheme available :-)

On the contrary after seeing the new 1000rr I no longer want a new bike, it's going to be a used bike or no bike because the new 1000RR totally turned me off.
