He is still running the cats.  You might as well run with a big cork in the muffler.

" I would like to dyno a carbon Termi slip on kit as they are open mufflers unlike the Ti mufflers with the cat at the front, but haven’t got to one as yet."

Gotcha. Thanks.

Don't get me wrong here boys. I'm not pissing on the 1098. I really liked the 1098 (stock) and you don't learn too much in a 15 mi. ride.

Just as the termi kit transforms the RS, I'm sure the kit transforms the 1098 also. And just like when I've said I wouldn't want a non-kitted RS, I wouldn't want a stock 1098s either.

Personally, I'd love to own  or get a looooong ride on a well sorted, termi kitted 1098S with RS handle bars.  I'd love to have the bike I have now with the 1098S motor in it. I'm a little jaded already and need to be reminded I'm lucky to have the bike I've got.

Maybe If I live long enough Ducati will put out a 1200 cc Monster. Jesus, I'd have to have one of those for sure. [moto]

Oh, I thought you said it was fully kitted.
