Hi guys
I have not owned a bike in 5-6 years, before than I have ridden japanese superbikes like gsxr 600/1000, Hayabusa etc. I used to do track days on a my track spec gsxr 1000 and was fairly successful for a weekend warrior. On the streets I never enjoyed going exceptionally fast and was more interested in biked that were ergonomically better for my back...has more upright handle bars etc...
In 2007 I have test ridden a Brutale 910R and since then I was in love with that bike. In the mean time I did not have the opportunity to buy a bike but things have changed and I am in the market, itching to buy a bike over the next 2 weeks.
I loved the ride of the 910R, I always enjoyed the smoothenes of the 4 cylinder but the new brutale that is in my price range is an 800 triple. I was never that impressed with the low revving V-twin ducati's although my friends swore by them.
Can you guys summarize a comparison between a used 910R and a new 800? I will try to ride both of them next friday but want to do some homework before hand.
