Hey hey Hey cmessenk, I do get off reading of your and DPO's anticipation of the flashy new Red Sausage Ducati 1199. But I live in Our-Kansas Dixieland not STATE of AR or AK Alaska US and diced it up with the upper 990cc size Monsters on mere Combat powered Peel to find them just another balloon tire flashy bail fish whose only means of escape is pure bee line sprints. Not that many opens here so didn't work out as the leader of the pack thought it would - and that was with 1/4 low air to cross mud to get to terra ferrma. in these various sport squadron encounters there was only one or two that would really kick up heels and leave pack to play serious but after a real turn or two only one would be left for Peel to play with. But even Peels extra accidental Combat power was not enough to out muscle these missiles leaving turns into opens and they could pass Peel on leaving stops into an open, after 90 mph/3rd. Pissed me off of course and so when the 1098 came out I realized even a boosted 750 wasn't gonna hack it, so 920 plan began. When ya got elite level zip its so hard not to flash right into trouble so be alert playing. If the new bike is on new tires BEWARE. If the tires are of a type that need some pre=warm, BEWARE. If able to get on edges BEWARE rear can't take nearly the throttle it can when not below 45'/ Do pay attention if harder to fling down or fling up. My Vtwin flings down easy but fights coming up in time, In line 4 seem to fight to fling down yet fly up on their own, sometimes as a hi side. I found my regular Combat has a slightly favorite side to fling to.BTW I'm not impressed by sticking a knee out to knock over chess pieces, fun as that is, nothing to it at that half fast lean angle, about any one can do that after just a few laps to warm tires and feel bike stability-grip ease. Moderns can be lain over to fold peg up and grind fairing but then get scary loose and their CoG issues and over ringing rigidity comes up suddenly. Peel gave no room for knee off tank w/o getting scary or loose. Also I bet that Ducatti engine and valve train get to be annoying within 30 minutes of hanging on like it mattered or even just touring to sight see.I'd love to see you and him playing in canyon tights but I'd fear for you on un-tamed Commando. I sure wouldn't-couldn't on my plain Jane Combat.
