Nah, been there, not keen to repeat. They're good, but the 996 was leagues better.

Then I would have to say 996 - the 749 just wouldn't have enough.

Budget for rockers

check out that 998 up there ^^^ his reserve seems to be about 4400 form what I read so may be a possibility.

I've had a 996 for years. Some time back I thought about swapping it for a 749S, got as far as test riding one, but it didn't do anything for me, left me cold.
996 for me everytime.
