As I said to iang in another thread....the R has an exclusivity that the 1098 or 1098s cannot match. Also the 04R as you know is a bit special with the carbon fairing. I would wait a while as well to let the 1098 get fully debugged and then, if you were of the mind, pick up a low miles bike where someone else has taken the hit in depreciation. Let's face it - a 1098 is unlikely to be abused or thrashed, is it? |
