Alright flame suit on,they talk about the Bimmer being similar in size to a 600,after the Duke everything is huge,duke is way more fun around town lowdown tq,Duke is pretty light bout 168kg with full Akra ti and CF,Duke is unforgiving on the road where as the beemer is compliant can change direction easily duke you are a bit more committed ,like the brakes on the Duke better ,also have a 08 R1 track bike all three go to the track regulary and just waiting for 1 down sprocket for beemer ,found it didnt have the drive out of the corners like the others,tight track and not very long,prefer the Duke at OUR track
On longer rides the Beemer shines great fuel mileage comfortable except for the buzz in the bars but added some weight and its better,the full length bellypan and painting the Cat black fixed that eyesore and covers for headlight has toned down the front,awaiting someone to carry pazzo's here
My 2 cents worth
Forgot to add undecided about which pipe ,probably Austin as there is a reason why they have servos in the header pipe,went through this with the Duke when fitted full Akra had to fit a Nemesiss ecu and tune it to get it to run properly,165 rwhp and grunt from off idle AWESOME but Beemer is sounding deeper all the time and like the stealth sound as the Duke is loud but my Harley is deafening haha
