I spose all you chaps in this forum will now be throwing away/dumping your old ugly 999/748`s and getting one of the new good looking 1098`s.

Mood: Feeling old...
I am so looking forward to this...

We've had 916/748 vs 999/749

We've had red vs yellow

Now we can have 916 vs 999 vs 1098...

Such a shame they're not doing it in yellow or we could throw that into the mix as well....!

All I can say is I'm glad we're all individuals and all have different tastes, otherwise it would be very bland indeed

I'm going to wait and see one in the flesh before deciding whether I like it or not...

oh I like that!

is it me or do the headlamps look narrower and meaner than in the other photos we have seen. I do like it like from the from front, now gettingb used to the rear. I think the idea about the big bulging cans is to emphasise the power of the bike, gives the impression the bodywork can barely contain them.
