Hloycrap,,,,,,,,Double E. A 1098 R That must be sweet. When R U gonna ride it?

Two more shots:

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.

DoubleEagle's 1098R, AWESOME!

It's my pleasure and thanks to misincredible for posting theses photos for me.

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

dear god that machine is nice....perfect.

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.

It's going to take me along time to get the 1500 breakin miles . 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 .

 


After viewing the pix........ No words need be said

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.

absolutly beautiful

Not to worry...when it's broken in it will get a chance to show it's stuff....not in a living room !
