Alright, tell me if I'm an idiot for this. For my next bike, I am really lusting for a Ducati. Its been my dream since I was a little kid. I've been looking at other bikes, and still am since I'm six months or so out from being back in the state's to purchase. That said, I've ridden a 1098R and a new Panigale S. I don't want or need that much bike, so how stupid of an idea is it to be looking at an 848? One with all the farkles seems to be going for right at 10k, which is a lot (and more than any new bike I'd be getting.) Also, just looking at the drat things make my pants get tight. Bike will be used for commuting 30 miles or so each way during the week, backroads on weekends and the occasional track day. I was also considering a new FZ09 or lightly used street/speed triple. So, CA, tell me how stupid I am.

Mcqueen posted:Any reason beyond making more delicious power? I read the handlebars on the 1100 are a bit more relaxed and the prices for them around Seattle seem to be in the range I'm looking for (cheapish). Newer. More power. I love my 02 ZRX, I'm 6' and ride it daily ~90 miles. I've never been on an 1100, but the 1200 is relaxed as hell so I can't imagine it's too different. How much are you looking to spend? You can find either one for 3k ish, in my experience. Check zrxoa and see if anyone is selling one near you, also. My bike is slowly creeping on 50k and still runs great.
