888SP -V- Honda SP1 -V- 749/999 how they match up. After a great rideout today with the surrey guys on the superlight, which saw the bike run well, more than can be said for myself, and that I was at the back as normal, making a somewhat rapid stop and start hopping around on the verge..... I am considering selling the other duke for something a bit newer. I really like the SP1 to be honest, and after today rideout the749/999 are growing me fast. After following brent for some miles today, his 749 seemed really quick, I suspect 999s or R is even quicker, but they seem quite small overall, maybe not suited for a tall rider. How do these match up against each other, I allready have the 888 so I know how it goes etc, but it maybee going sooner than later after today. I've had the 916/996/998's so been there, but having never tried the 749/999 or SP1 how do they compare . SP1 looks mean, and looks like it suits a taller rider such as myself, but I like the duke's too. What are the pro's and cons of these flavour bikes,prices and running cost etc.What about performance between them. any thought peeps. anyone also looking for an T8 soon. But I will be keeping the superlight, it such just a great bike to rideout on, not superfast , but nice. cheers Rob Last edited by Redsps : 27-Aug-2006 at 22:47. |
