I know :)

My IL4 is having another £1k spent on the suspension which takes it to the spec of the duc, it's then having another £1k on exhaust and PCIII which takes it to around 175 at the back wheel. I'm still only at £8500 then, also added a set of wheels and discs for when trackdays are wet and that's took me to £9k, another few bits and pieces and I'm still well over £3k less. All the duc has is looks and that's a personal thing altho to me the Duc does look better.
I do like the idea of telemetry but I'm guessing it's not a full system with suspension travel, wheel speeds, brake pressures etc as I can't see the rods and stuff around the suspension ?
it's something I will add to my bike as it's something I want to get into having briefly used a 2D system this year o nthe superstock bike.

I guess it's the economics of Ducati being smaller that means they can't make them much cheaper, a shame as I would have had one.

My thoughts onthis are if you are going to have too much you may as well have WAY too much ;) ;)

...and of course the old ones still look better. Old ones as in 996R/998R. :)

As for your 4? You never had any taste anyway. :rolleyes:

All that will happen is that I will tankslap even more quickly into the nearest dry stone wall on the Hartside road. Even the 800 is far too fast most of the time on that road. I rarely exceed 6-7krpm. On the 1098 I'd be in 2nd or 3rd with less than 4krpm on the tacho. :lol:
