Steve I know exactly where you are coming from. 888 SP and RC30 are the only two bikes that I have ever craved and it's good to know that you are of like mind. I have never felt so at one with a bike as I did with the RC - incredibly easy to ride very fast, and the best sound in biking (cue DSC outrage!) - but the Ducati feels very organic and great in different ways. I'll be looking for another RC in about 2 years to ship to OZ. All the best Justin |
