Crikey, I didn’t expect such a response. Some interesting thoughts and some very valid views on the matter.

I had thought the results would be about 50:50, after all, the 1098/848 has moved things on considerably in terms of styling, ease-of-servicing and some technology; of course, if there was an R version it would be a no-brainer.

There’s absolutely no reason on this planet that I would move over to an 848 from my current machine, it was purely a conversation I had with a chap in a Ducati dealership that prompted me to raise the question. Everyone has their own opinion, he has his, I thought I’d raise the question here…

Jools, nice comment, I’ll swap you a ride on mine for a go on your 888???

Now I’ll concentrate on a proper, real-world conundrum, shall I go to bed or have another beer… Hmmmm, I feel another poll coming on….

Magpie.
