    Beast of a bike, keep an eye on the quick shifter as have been big problems with the first generation of them

    Thanks for the advice, the bike has a fairly good warranty. Ducati has gotten much better in the past few years in regards to their handling of "issues".

    Agreed. I nearly bought one earlier this year, but settled (rightly or wrongly) on the 2018 SP2.

    I gave much thought to the new SP but in the end, the V4's body lines and boatload of gadgetry won me over.
