I agree with Rap....I enjoy riding most anything, frankly
But, to the OP, I have both a 07 R1 and the 1098. Completely different bikes, but I certainly enjoy them both. I have to admit that since buying the Duc, I refer to the R1 as my "cruiser bike".....since it is wider, heavier, and slightly more upright..... enjoy them both, for sure.. (1098 more, of course!)
