I sat on an 08 R1 and it really wasnt a lot different than the 848. Actually the Buell 1125R and the 08 GSXR1K all felt really close. Even the 08 CBR600RR was similar. Of all of those, the only one I didnt like was the 1125R and that was because my toe hit the engine case when my foot was on the rear brake.

I've also heard that the ergos are a bit better than a typical liter bike... just sitting on it in the show room is hard to tell... hopefully get a better feel for it soon!! |

The 1098 ergo's are nothing to cheer about at slow speed or in a straight line. On the track, it's a completely different story!

Yeah, I was going to post something on 702 about this place. Not too shabby!
Danny needs to bring his ass over here, considering this is an 848 topic and he has an 848. Did he ride that this weekend or the R6? |

He rode the R6. I bet his 848 has less than 200 miles on it.
