I'm not fast enough to take either of those bikes to the max, so talking about it taking more than wheels and suspension (which is a pretty big fucking factor) doesn't mean shit to me. I want to know how much a bike costs and how much it'll be to maintain the bitch. No way NEAR a 999S or a MV. The 1098 and 848 have significantly lower maintenance costs than older Ducatis, which is cool. but there's nothing significant about the 1098 or 999 or MV. The R1 is a 50th anniversary edition with Marchesini wheels, slipper clutch and Ohlins suspension. I couldn't care less if a higher priced Ducati comes stock with Ohlins or Brembo. They mass-produce those bikes every year. The LE only came out ONE year. The R1 LE is more rare than any of those bikes.
