I absolutely love my Speed Triple.

But then, I got a gig leading demo-rides for a local Ducati/Triumph/MV Agusta dealership. So I was able to get plenty of extended seat-time on a Duc S4Rs. And I wish I hadn't. Yea, ride one for a while... it's that good. Maybe it's just that the S4Rs "fit" me better than the Speed Triple, but the power and handling was better, I think. And even though the Speed Triple inspires feats of outrageous hooliganism, the S4Rs promotes inspired RIDING.

If I had the choice, would I pick the S4Rs over the Speed Triple? Dunno. My loyalty to my Speed Triple tells me to pick it over the S4Rs. But to ride that thing...

Just go test-ride one for yourself. You might swing towards Italian.
