Mood: R U thinking what I'm thinking?......Oh dear!
Where does the 998 fit in then

Is it some sort of inbetweenie like the Goodies song??

Must admit the later 999 with the filled in top vents don't look too bad.

IMHO A blinged up bike always looks good if done to taste.

I'm trapped in 2002 though, I don't think it would be a bright move to sell the 998, much as I might like the idea of a 1098 or 1198.

Loved my 996..............Sandra hated the 999 (but then she never stayed on the back of it for more than a day ) Both of us think the 848 is the Muts ***s.

Having ridden all the shapes they have got better to ride over the years, the 1098 is massively superior in every way to the original 916 and for me looks better and more modern. If riding matters I see no reason to buy the older bikes, you can't stop progress.
