I'm sure I'd love a 1098.... my current order:

1 - MV F4
2 - KTM RC8
3 - Any of the Ducati's

[Carbon_ZX6R]

which f4 though

[Bullet]

spotting a big V twin theme to your list!

what about an Aprilia RSV1000R

hard to get more bling on an exotic italian V twin for the money in my opinion, I only got an sp1 because I couldnt afford the aprilia!

early 750's float my boat

shocking isn't it?

Dan. Be very careful buying a used RC8.

Lots out there are unsold 2008 bikes wearing later plates. Lots of early bikes have shocking fuelling or many recalls that needed carrying out.

Suggest you view, check its VIN number and then contact a KTM dealer to find out the exact age of the bike and whether it has any recalls outstanding.

A decent RC8 will have an Oberon clutch master cylinder and hopefully either a PC111 or PCV with a decent remap (even with the stock exhaust).
