I don't think you can say the 1199 stands up to the hype after that ride...there weren't any turns or twisty mountain roads! I think I'd get a Diavel if I lived there...a SBK would just be depressing. At least traffic was light though (something you can't say about here)!  [laugh]

I can picture a lot of 1199's with extended swingarms and fat rear tires!  :)

the 848 streetfighter isnt slow, it only feels slow because the powerband is peaky, you need to rev it up to 9k to get anything significant out of it
