I tried to look at different angles of the rear tail, and I still don’t think it’s proportional. It’s sits up too high and is fat as hell. ---

I would expect the 848 to be in the 12k rang (total guess) with the 1098 starting at 15k. While supposedly better than the old bikes, the maint. is still pretty costly on these guys if you do a lot of miles. I can’t seem to find any real info on the 848. Its been rumored to be coming out since the 1098 release, and it makes sense, I just haven’t found/seen any hard facts. ---

[/quote] first time i think i ever 100% agreed with walter… :lol: its not in the US yet, but my guess with the 1098 starting at 15 and the tricolore nearing the 30k mark, id venture to say that the 848 will be pretty close to 12-14k… i doubt it will be discounted much more than the 1098… i love the way the headlights look though, the F4 headlight never did it for me, and im not a fan of the tail pipes on the F4 either ---
