748r \"v\" 996(s) who has the inside track?
 
If you have read my 748R post you'll know that the bike is less than user friendly.
Whilst the engine is awsome it has many isseus clearly not resolved. No one really has a perfect set-up and advocates the "turn a blind eye, she's worth it" attitude.
Getting a bit weary of that as I want maybe waht I can't have.
I love my 748 bip, and thought the R would be a quantum leap - it was motor wise but everything else is not right.

It remains may bikes to many people and is thus fatally flawed.
So, is it best to plum for a 996 or even a 998(?) as lets be honest here, I want a multi role bike.
Funds are not good!

Most of my time might be spent on the track, but if I want to work a bike hard , especially with the fueling, I would be better off on a race bike 4 track days and have 2nd one for the road, which is not the point at all.

Going to bed, my head hurtrs!

Thanks for all the 748R postings - I loved her too, just not enough to think she was worth the extra £.
