the person that buys that bike isn't concerned about such things.......thats kinda the point

when you start to play at that level, 1098R , M5 ect. you dont really care about an R1 costing 25% as much and a Z350 cornering faster. That has little to do with ownership experience.
I race 250k sailboats, they break stuff and sometimes hit each other. Couldn't do it on my dime, but the owners rave about the experience.
how did this thread turn into an internet geekathon about what would be what on the street and track, who cares
Saw one at the Gap this year. Definitely a nice looking bike. Not sure what I'd do if I had that kind of disposable cash....but I think it looks great.
So wait? You didn't just sit there in the garage with a beer staring at your bike the first time you got it home?
If I had that in my garage I'd suffer from kidney failure.
nope, i got home, my buddy rode it for me as i wasnt expecting to buy a helmet the same day as the bike, turns out i did, he drove it home for me, i grabbed a jacket some gloves and we put 80 km on the ***** and stopped riding because it rained
I wonder if it's World Superbike spec.
you mean because they are too dumb?

I’d rather be riding my motorcycle thinking about God than sitting in church thinking about my motorcycle.
beautiful bike...until you slap a flag on it...as for spending the money on something like that...sure...(if it didn't come with the flag of course)...

cause they probably have several bikes and a couple of Ferrarri's etc and don't care about $50000.......slightly different disposable income.
yes, I'd rather have a bike with Fiat written all over it.for $17700 CAD, i rather have this...
and people were complaining about the flag
I bet its a good seller in OZ
If performance per dollar was all that anyone cared about , no one would ever buy a harley , or a tourer - it would all be sports bikes. If money were no object , I would have one over most similar high cost special editions - lets face it, the very high $$ MV special editions are outclassed by most of the supersport 1000s from Japan. My reasoning - Bayliss was always my favourite GP rider. Same reason people wear replica lids instead of plain ones that cost less.

i personally prefer the look of my bike... and apparently it outperforms it as well... so for me, the GSXR 1000 beats that 1098 in price, looks and performance...
only thing i can think of that 1098 beats my bike is the attention it would get when pulling into a timmies... more GSXR's out there than Duc's ... worth the extra $42,000? probably not
2007 Lotus Exige S ~ the grocery-getter
2004 ZX6R ~ the daily commuter (sold)
2005 GSXR 1000 ~ the scary thing in my garage (sold to my insurer lol)
2007 GSXR 1000 ~ the newer scary thing in my garage
