900 miles on the bike now and till blown away. Couple of things to note.....
The engine os absolutely insane, the power it makes is otherworldly. It just pulls, it'll rip your arms off if you let it. Still blown away, it'll leave the Panigale R left for dead.
The Euro 4 exhaust on this bike is sad, you can feel how much it chokes up the bike. You can just feel how restricted it is, its hard to explain. Its quiet, very quiet. After having had my 1299 S with the full akra and the Panigale R with the race akra also this is like whisper drive. Its also makes the bike run hotter. Im used to the Panigale heat and this is a step above that. Simply put, it needs the race exhaust.
OK, this bike is special. When you ride it you can tell, everything about it. The look, the engine, the way to handles, its just a little different.
To me, this is the bike I wanted. I have no doubt the V4 will be something awesome, but this bike is ANGRY. I absolutely love that about it.
