As long as it's red...

Nice bike! A lot of jumpers ride. Let's organize a ride from drop zone to drop zone, across the country, making a jump at every dz along the way. You can join in at any dz the tour gets to and quit whenever you've had enough.

No interstates! Nothing but twisties. Size, color, or type of bike not an issue. All skyjumpen, bike riding fools welcome.

What do you say???

Sounds kewl, I am kinda biased and like the naked bikes, hence the Speed Triple in the garage. It is basically a touch higher in Hp and torque than the Duc but a touch heavier also. But the Duc is a nice ride, ya outta ride S3 first then decide;)

I have been a twin fan since I rode my first one. I started with a Suzuki TL1000S, then Ducati 996, then RC51 and I just bought a 2002 Aprilia RSV Mille R. The Aprilia is FANTASTIC! It is like a cross between the Duc and the RC, it has the feel of the Duc but the better power of the RC. God I love the Italians! Gongrats man, I thought about buyning the 1098 but then I thought about how much I ride and the cost involved and it didn't pencil out.

My first impression after the first weekend with th 1098 is no regrets... There is more grunt and just as much power as the R1s, but the Duc can plant it on the ground better. This bike really sticks it and goes. I feel way more planted in the turns and it hooks up better just getting on it in the flats. If I would have known they handled this well. I would have had a 916 years ago...
