What should I tell you? This bike must be from an other planet.
Everything they told us is even much better than ever, ever suspected.
In short form:
1. The thunderous sound from this Superquadro is amazing - 104dB@5'000U/min.
2. The second impression is the very comfortable riding position.
3. The 1199 Superquadro doesn't have the same steam-catapult thrust at lower revs as its predecessor 1198, but more manageable midrange makes it much easier to ride fast.
4. It is easier now riding throw cities and towns because this engine doesn't jerk and rattle like the old 1198 did.
5. The Pan wheelies hard through the top of second gear and the front end dances every time you tap the electronic quick-shifter, all the way to 200km/h.
6. The new Brembo brakes, are the best brakes I've experienced on a production bike ever.
7. At the moment there is nothing I can tell you about the ABS or DTC because it was my first ride on public road ;-))

Is it hot like the old 1198s? (I live in a 33C-39C country)

Yup, thats what its built for - its when manufacturers start limiting revs for the break-in period that I get worried!!
Shouldn't be that borderline fragile - no way!!
