NIce collection. How does the S1000RR compare to the Panigale? Its a bike I've had an interest in since they moved away from the asymmetrical headlight thing.

The S1000RR feels a lot more smooth and way more comfortable than the Panigale. Cruise control is nice when the right hand starts to go numb. And the fuel gauge, I don't know why Ducati did not put a fuel gauge on the Panigale. The s1000rr is much better, to be honest, but it's nice to have both.

I'm a relatively novice rider, so the power doesn't make much difference to me. I'm sure the Ducati trumps the BMW every time as far as performance goes...
 
Nice collection!

I am very curious to try the S1000RR myself. But having owned the V4, R6, and V2, I feel like I am fully content when it comes to the ergo, feel, cornering, look, and sound (in that order).

V4 is my favourite .Then R6 ... a close second. Then V2 which I sold recently .. although the latest black model is tempting me to add it back to my collection.

Perhaps S1000RR will rank just after V2... Perhaps before it?

Something tells me the (lower) seat height will make it less aggressive (compared to V4, R6 (33.5") and V2 (33.1")) for track riding (my primary focus). But all is shooting in the dark until I actually sit on it and take it for a spin.


PS: I am a novice myself ... actually just passed the "novice rider" road test here in Canada. Been riding since April 2021.
 
A warm welcome to you. Amazing collection I must say. the choice of color and model are superb.
