I'm not a numbers guy and tend to go with what moves me (as probably most of us with Ducs do

) rather than by the #s or what outperforms. A buddy is considering either an RC51 or a 74/999. Can you guys provide a little educated discussion on the two for me?

Tacit is the reliability/character issue so I don't think you need to waste typing skills there

Tell your buddy to get the Duc

He obviously is used to following with no ability to think for himself, only doing the popular thing so He sounds exactly like the Perfect Ducati owner.

Sorry man just being the proverbial shit disturber.

I actually think he should ride both and make an educated decision. If the price is not a problem, He probably will opt for the Ducati.

Best advice is buy what gives you WOOD.

sp has it right, take em both out for a rip and make a descision based on that then you have a one on one comparo.

I had a RC with all the toys and I personally feel my base 999 is a better bike.
