Sorry lads but i might just have to have one,dont really agree that most people wont be able to use it to its full potential,most people dont use whatever bike they have to there full potential,thats not really what its all about.
We all own our beloved Ducatis because (imho) we appretiate the engineering ,quality,and downright class that the family at the factory build into every bike that they build.
As some of you know my890 lives in our dinning room during the winter months and its quite amazing how many total non bikers that we have around for dinner spend a huge chunk of the evening admiring the bike (try that with a rice burner).
It would be interesting to see how many people would turn down an RR if they were given one for free!
I am not the quickest or most confident rider on track but that dosnt stop me from using my £35k 890 on track, as i tell most people its there to be used ,and that includes letting anyone else who fancies trying it (i really enjoy whatching someone who knows what there doing putting it through its paces)
I dont really have an opinion if i like thr RR or not-I just admire it for what it is,a beautifull piece of engineering.
Sorry in advance if this post feels a bit soapbox-ish
Love and kisses !
