It's been a few years now since I had my last Duke, a 92 900ss. After much soul searching I decided to return to the fold and have been looking for a tidy late Superlight. Thought I'd give it a bit more pep with the usual aftermarket add ons. Then I thought "look at the price of a good 888 now". The bike of my dreams in my teens/early twenties. Only thing is - I've had a go on a few 916s and their derivatives and, to be honest, was disappointed. Yes they've got superbike speed, handling and gorgeous looks but, boy, they're committed and you don't half have to rev 'em! What I loved about the old 2 valvers was that lovely low down torque and midrange. Anyway, long story short, before I go hunting around for a good 888 I can take for a test, can anyone give me an idea of the character of these motors. Are they revvy like the new generation 4 valvers, lumpy old torque monsters or somewhere in between. Lastly, what could I expect to get for £5-6k?
