That is because you are ridding upside down. You have to be in the states for a true comparison. Yep Ducs do good. Had a 900SS/SP. Have to disagree with the long ride ergos though. Handel like on rails but way to forward below 90MPH for an old guy. Fact I was just looking at them a gain just a few days ago and had a revelation moment. I would love just to have one in my front room. But it take me too long to get to and from the mountains to endure the hand pressure. Just me possibly. No doubt the 1098S is too beautiful for words.
