My brother has an 1199, and I've spent some time on it. It's an amazing bike, and after the adrenaline rush wears off, I find myself fixated on the instrument cluster. If you haven't seen it, it's what all bikes will sport in a few years. Funny, I can't even find a picture of it online, but it's a cool touchscreen that allows adjustment of suspension, ECU, Quickshift, etc. Way cool.
