Actually , the first year of 999 production outsold the last year of 998 production

It just seems like the new shape bikes arn't selling as well because of how many 916 shape bikes there are due to 10 years of production

I personally like both shapes about the same , but my 749R is technically years ahead of my old 748R and much higher spec , which would you have ?
