GTR032 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 If I had lots of spare cash I'd get the 848 in white. Hotness. You talking about the Ducati 848, little bro to the 1098?? They look like a pretty decent setup from what i've read. Very similar to the 1098.. Here's mine by the way next to a mates GSXR750..

Marko R1 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 How did the 1098S go? There is one for sale on on bike sales, 3,000kms for $26,000... So tempted to buy it... the 1098 is nice but no match with my K6 - 1098 claimed hp is about 20hp less than that of the gsxr. its like comparing a ferrari to a gtr...look great but gtr will hose it in almost every aspect in terms of performance Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/178758-who-here-rides-bikes/page/4/#findComment-3544818 Share on other sites More sharing options...
[200] Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Yeh, I've read that in a few magazines... a bit of a shame. They are bringing out a 1098R which is mean to have around 180hp if I remember correctly.

[200] Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I think those that buy them dont really care how heavy they are or how much power the put out...

When you realise how slow and crap the CBR250 is compared to the CBR600/R6s etc, I doubt you'll want to use it on the track......
