| Ive had some experience on the 1000 - my thoughts ?
- Extremely uncomfortable (i'm 6'1 and it was on the point of unbearable after 50 miles!!)
- Absolutely stunning performance/torque (wheelies in 3rd over crests in the road anyone ??!)
- Not sure on reliability of the thou but my mates got a 750 and its shocking - bits are always falling off, batteries exploded etc. Hes had enough and hes going back to the rice burners !!!
- Dealer back up as at best indifferent. Parts can take an age to come through (I know a guy who sold his F4 purely because the dealer was waiting 2 months for an oil filter when it was in for a service and wouldnt let him ride his bike any longer as the warranty would be invalidated due to itv going over mileage ??!!)
Although they do look absolutely fantastic, they just dont have the kudos of a ducati do they ? (although ironically their track pedigree is as good if not better!). I've been out with my mate on his MV and joe public always tend to be attracted to the ducati badge !!!  |
