Joe, I have the 696 Monster, but have ridden several 848's and almost bought one. I didn't and the biggest reason was I do a lot more riding on the street than I do on the track and the 848 is fun for 30-45 minutes on the street. Don't even think about going on a trip on one. Oh I know someone will come back with "I rode coast to coast on my 848 and it was the most comfortable bike I ever road." They are lying to you and to themselves.

If I was going to get a pure track bike? The 848 would be right up there at the top of the list.
