Awesome bike, bud. Are you on ducati.org? Just picked up the 848, and that's a beast for me.

Learned to ride on a r6s... no moto/riding experience, prior. Yes, it was fast, but the bike was pretty forgiving (18k redline). But, as I gained experienced, quickly learned that I needed to rev the piss out of it to get speed. You can't go wrong with any of the inline-4 motors.

However, always wanted to try out a twin motor, and goooooood lawwwwd, i feel like i'm driving a diesel. Instant torque on the 848 - compared to the R6s.
