Howdy, yes there are a few. I get a go on the Tricolore every now and again, I ran it in for my husband as he couldn't ride at the time, being a bit broken! In the meantime I have to slum it on either the 998S FE or the 748, which unfortunately is getting out less and less, poor baby. The little yellow bike needs new tyres and the budget just is not there at the moment, maybe in the new year.
I don't find the 1098 scary, HOWEVER, I have a very great deal of respect for it. Its funny, though, it sees a corner and just goes faster. It is also a very deceptive bike to ride, never feels like it is working hard. Would we trade the 998S for another one - Nup, I love the 998 too much.
Cheers
