Reply With QuoteThat's a bad ass bike. I've read quite a few reviews on it and everything I've read says its damn near the greatest bike ever!
My friend just bought a brand new 2012 1199! man that thing is sweet!
Although, whenever we stopped, people would walk right past his Ducati and swarm my bike :D
Rode about 100 miles today. I've had my xb12scg for about a month, and LOVE IT.

Only thing you guys are missing is someone wearing flip flops lol
^^ haha. one of my friends actually wears flip flops when riding. . .
I hope you're not the one wearing your sisters pants lmao
hahaha. No I'm the one taking the pic ;)
Wow there are some narrow minded/ opinionated people on this forum haha
BAD ASS Bike! The Buell definitely catches my eye but the Penigale is a beautiful piece of art. I love the exhaust coming through the fairing! 192 HP of sexiness!
It's freakin awesome. He said I can ride it after the break in period. About 400 more miles to go!
1199 is so sexy... did he get the S? I figure if I was gonna spend 20k on a Duc, I would go all out...
The as tested hp on the 1199 base model is around 157hp. But hey every dyno is different and Duc just like every one else will say almost anything to sell a bike. Motortrend has a video comparing the BMW thing with one head light bigger then the other and the Duc that covers the motor just enough so when you ride completely tucked you get a three degree burn on the inside of your leg and need a skin graph. O and dont forget about the rear suspension that wants to tear your other leg off if your jeans get caught in it.
Anyway the BMW has more power around 172hp as tested and laps the track faster then the Duc cripple you 5 minutes into riding it thing.
By the way that's all crap I'd still buy a 1199 if I had 20,000 sitting around.
