Title: My 848 is for sale - not
Post by: webspoke on February 15, 2013, 11:55:55 AM
It's been posted elsewhere, but now here on the DMF classifieds.  Just in time for riding season.  Looks like sale is pending...

Good luck Stan, though I hate to see it go.

Thoughts on the Streetfighter?

The SF is most of what I hoped for.  Great engine, great brakes, very nice handling (for my speed) and rides a bit softer than the 848, which is nice on real roads.  I am glad I gave it a try.  The 848 was really most fun in the twisties or ripping over 80, the SF is also enjoyable all the other times.  I will miss the sbk, but can't justify keeping both for as little as I ride.

I briefly rode an 848 demo and it seemed so different from what ive ridden.  Im guessing the low end torque is on Monsters and HMs.
I did test a Streetfighter S (1098?) when they came out and i LOVED it!  Power? Yeah baby! [Dolph] [thumbsup] ;D

Good luck with the 848 sale.
