At the end of the day, no matter what 996R owners say ... the 998R is the ultimate bike in that shape. I looked for a 996R initially because I'm a Bayliss fan and it was the last one to win a championship ... but the 998R is the highest spec bike ever to be built in the iconic shape. It's that simple. No matter what you say you can't circumvent that fact. The 998R is the best bike ever built in the iconic shape. |
