What's with the mirrors - I fail to understand why they don't fit them with tidy bar-end ones.

most likely certs to be first road regeisted in many countrys in the world make it like that.

[testastretta]

no they are 1198/s/r now

At this stage there is no 1198R.1198,1198S and 1098R +Bayliss version(nice!).

I quite like the streetfighter, it's a bit busy and perhaps over styled a bit but interesting none the less.

[McJim]

I can only afford bikes that are a t least 10 years old - so this means I may one day be able to upgrade to the later version of a 900ss or (dare I say it) a 749!

What's with the new Logo, Looks like Puma?
