    Howdy Bryan, welcome to the forum. Don't know if everyone would agree with you there. Aren't 1198 what dreams are made of? ;)

    Welcome Bryan, interesting comment coming from an ex 1198 rider. I have never ridden the 1198 myself but I have a mates tricked 1098 and its awesome mid range power delivery and handling always widens my eyes.

    Welcome Bryan,Think the Duc looks good but it would do its Italian.Fireblade is more of an all rounder IMO.

    Dreams yes! I was lucky enough live the dream but to just open the garage and ride whatever the mood nah!
    I loved the Duc but we fell out with each other to many times. Given a clear road and long sweeping bends it was the dream!

    Wanted a bike I could just open the garage door and go and ride regardless of how good I was on the day. The Duc wanted 100% (not a bad thing) but like most I have off day!
