    I'm liking it too. I think it looks much better than the the honda CBR 100 rr IMO.

    1098 is the best looking modern motorcycle. I like that and some of the Bimota products.

    I have a 749 myself and would consider upgrading if I lived in the suburbs again. In the city it is much too dangerous

    I'm not feeling it. It's probably because I am more into Honda styling.

    Did anyone read the article? I wonder how the S-DMS (for Suzuki Drive Mode Selector) will pan out for the smaller bikes and how the electronically-controlled steering damper differs from conventional hydraulic and Honda's HESD unit.

    Maybe it's the colour scheme, I find that these bikes in solid colours can be "not so bad" after all

    This bike does look cool, although I prefer Kawasakis myself..
    Cant help but think though that this bike just looks soooo badass... I'm not really a bike person but when I saw this monster in real life I was stunned

    These are nice bikes, but I think they lack a little power when compared to their contemporary rivals. Resale in the states is terrible. The typical Harley guy hasn't accepted the V-Rod yet.

    This one seems to be a custom, though. Very menacing!

    I may get that (Duc)1098 in red, of course.

    The bike does look like a custom effort. The Ducati 1098 sounds like a promising purchase. I am slightly impartial for purchasing expensive motorcycles. Dropping one or eating sh*t on those things hurt the wallet and the heart. I wouldn't feel too bad if I dropped a CBR600RR compared to a 1098S.

    In the end I am extremely curious about the upcoming Aprilia V4 1000cc bike. That machine sounds out-of-this-world.

    Hmm, the Suzuki isn't doing it for me. Especially that exhaust pipe - yikes!!

    I'm also extremely curious about the upcoming Aprilia and how it compares to the Ducati Desmosedici RR (200hp).

    That would be an amazing comparison. Too bad there are no motorcycle shows like Top Gear, Fifth Gear, and Best MOTORing to provide us some good motorcycle action.
