While I take the point that there are lighter bikes, Because of my size I want to stay in the 1 liter class (If you think any of the spaghetti benders are heavy then the B King is Mammoth) I looked at thte speed tripple but it heavier than any of the Ducati s or Aprillia . Having owned a 999 I know that the Ducati Chassis is great the drive train is great. Ideally I want the the nimble nature of the 999 and the HP of the Busa. All without the Superbike Tuck that at my age, make a superbike something I want to ride for no more than an hour or two at time.
