Hey Wilks, I'm thinking of swapping the Pani for this.....I love the Pani...but this looks like fun. I don't track the pani and what I've found myself shying away from 5 - 6 hrs sunday blasts due to the Pani...3 - 4 hrs is my max where I don't get over it.....

How is it on the Aussie roads....could you spend the day on the saddle on it?
 
If Ducati hadn't discontinued the 1098 SF I would have bought another one and would never have picked up the Pani. Mine is in jeopardy of ending up in the classifieds as soon as someone produces another liter naked that I like as well as I did my 1098 SF.

Hey Capt, I was in Harrisburg, PA this past week for work and Koup's Cycle has a brand new 2012 Titanium Grey SF-S for sale. They also have a red 2010 SF-S with 6,500 miles with the belts/valves service just completed asking $10K. I was drooling over both. I also swung over to Fast by Ferracci in Willow Grove and sat on the Rivale and Dragster. Loving that Dragster but it would be hard not to get the used SF-S 1098 for less than $10K and save the $4,000 over the Dragster...

Just went away for a two day ride . Bike is fantastic .

so if you had the choice to own one bike with say maybe 3 track days a year and the rest for full day sunday blasts would it be the pani (with some concrete to eat - i.e. harden up) or the 1290?
 
The 1290 for sure .

Tell me more about it!!! I'm getting mine very soon, dealer is calling me back on Monday with a concrete answer on when it's supposed to arrive. Hoping it gets here before I leave on my annual motorcycle trip on the 26th.

Also still considering one of the AR exhausts, especially since they are less than the full akra.

Such a fun fast bike to ride . We did over 800 km in two days had 3 KTM's a BMW S1000 a Panigale a MTS1200 and a couple of GS's .
Everyone wanted to ride the 1290 KTM comfortable handles superb great smooth engine and a wheelie machine .
I fitted a KTM tail bag to mine which is perfect for a few days away on the bike .

I've booked test ride Saturday :) ...the orange wheels...similar to the prototype are they a power part?

Is the full akra available yet? I think I'd go down that road looking at you tube videos...the AR looks awesome but sounds really loud from the video....highway patrol magnet I bet?

The AR high Pipe looks trick but wayyyy too loud you won't last a week.
The Akra is available in may but the slip on is available .
The orange wheels have just been painted .

Turn the traction control off when you test ride it .
