The 999r is a much better bike.

If I edge out Duckie, I'll make the podium and yet still be safe from the snuggie! I guess MH just likes sharing the snuggie with others.

Rubba Duk, sorry about your Diavel, and congrats on your 999R. I was advised by a BMW rider instructor to practice my emergency stops in an empty parking lot. Might be helpful as stronger brakes don't necessarily mean shorter stopping distance if the skill is not there. I ride a Multistroodle, the older model.
