I saw a 1098 race for the first time

I know its not a Monster, but I saw a 1098 race for the first time in a club race at Cadwell last weekend.It was running in the Forza Xtreme class against the usual tuned to buggery GSXR1000s etc, and it won!

Looked and sounded great in action, and pulled much harder out of the bends than some of the Jap fours.

Looks like it could do well in WSB next year.

Especially as, rumour has it, that the 1198R will be launched at the back end of this year year and is reputed to make about 180bhp.......

And all for the bargin price of £21k...... eek!
