Really? The new one? It might require a different riding style as the power band on it is probably closer to a v-twin now than a typical inline 4. But hey what do i know....the only thing i've ever ridden was my 250

Anyway, if I had the cash, my upgrade bike would be a Street Triple R...either that or an R6. I really like the 848's but I didn't appreciate what it did to my crotch when i sat on it during the motorcycle show.
