Hey Jon, if you take the space after the .jgp in your signature block, your logo, it will display correctly. As in, no spaces between .jpg and [/img] butt them up against each other.

Forget about trying to justify your choice to anyone else, buying a Duke is about being selfish and not bothering about what anyone else thinks, A mate once called a mono seat duke a " selfish mans bike" maybe that sums it up.
The 998 series have the same engines as the 999 series with only a few tweaks on specific models. Just choose the bodywork you like.
998 or rather 996R. Went to a bike show yesterday and saw the 2005 999 range. Mmmm, still not right. Welding still not well done on frame, bike still looks incomplete. Those odd triangular inserts at the top of the frame where it meets the seat section, odd and out of place. 998 it is then.
Bikes: Kawasaki ZX10r D6f, Dawes XC2.4, Planet X Superlight Pro Carbon

Ive got one. Got it last april and did about 3500 miles last year. Its awesome and is a big improvement on the 996 I had before. Being a greedy get I bought a 748 for the track this year too so have to admit to liking the pure style of the originals.
