I said I was disappointed. Not fat and old. 
ps. It's really amusing to see people get so offended when someone complains about Ducati. Some really insecure mo'fos... .lol

I actually don't have the issues you do with the bike itself. I do love mine. Except for that retarded dry clutch and the poor fueling with Termis.
However the company and dealer support and so terrible that I regularly consider selling it just because I despise them.

Test drive the BMW, a friend of mine traded his MV for one and said he should have just waited for the BM in the first place.
Personally, I don't know shit about bikes except that they look cool and for exhaust on the RR, go with Akra.
If I wanted to kill myself, step one would be to buy a S1000RR!

I spent 2 days on the BMW at Laguna Seca. It's fast, but lacks character. When I did my level 4 Superbike School at Streets of Willow, I did it on my Aprilia. The instructors had a hard time keeping up with me. The Aprilia is definitely down on power compared to the BMW.

Thats the power of the twin. Did you see the shootout who the quickest was on MCN? 1198sp/RSV4 Factory/KTM RC8/S1000RR
The 'Priler won.
My issue again is dealer support. Again.
