If I had $30k+ to spend on a bike, that would be the one, hands down!  I would be torn between riding it or hanging it in the living room.

Please take it to the track and give us an "average joe" perspective of the traction control.   [moto]

I rode today for the 1st time since my accident back on 4/5 . My Surgeon had told me two weeks ago that I wouldn't ride again this year.  I just couldn't believe it ! I called his office this last Wednesday and asked his Nurse to ask him what Pathological reason could I not ride for the rest of the year and his response was that I could go ahead and ride , just that he didn't want to see me again as a patient.

So to say I was a bit nervous was an understatement . I rode for an hour or so and it was something else. Since the 1098R is new I'm breaking it in ,so I stayed under 5500 rpms but 60 mph comes so fast in second gear without even trying and the Full Race Termis are LOUD !!!  I can't imagine what they will sound like when the Orchestra is in full song ! I thought my S4Rs w/ the Full Termis was loud but this is like the S4Rs is baby bear and this is papa bear ....w/ a sore foot. Riding the Monster will probably feel like a gelding compared to this Stallion.

I made it home in one piece and I hope it stays that way. It's not a bike for a guy that is 6'5" , bar risers will be a must if I want to ride in comfort and beable to see without bending my neck back against my back.

I need to get bar risers so I can see where I'm going since I'm 6'5" It's not much fun to ride with your head bent back against your back constantly. I just rode it for the 1st time today since I've been mending from an accident and Surgery .

please beat the heck out of that bike on a track and ride it the way it was made to be.

a bike that was engineered like that was developed with tons of hours by very hard working engineers and technicians.. please please please DO NOT PUT THAT BIKE IN A LIVING ROOM FOR DISPLAY.  That would be a shame.

That bike should be ridden and ridden hard at a track.

congratulations and enjoy the bike.  you got a great bike.

About the same time you're dragging your knees through a series of tight left-right-handers on Sunday afternoon, some guy in white shoes is sweating a 3-foot putt. Go figure.
