    Drove this bike yesterday. Lots of fun and very playful. However, it is very expensive and you would be better of spending that money on a naked. It’s a toy, rather than a naked that you can use for commuting, tracking, touring in more comfort.

      If it came in under the price of something like a MT09, I think you see them everywhere. But you’re right, way too much money vs the value of other bikes on the market. Hell, even the new monster seems like a much more comprehensive package for the same price.

      It should be about 8500. Its just a single cylinder bike.. That's why you don't see very many new riders. All the bikes being over priced. Its annoying to me.

    The difference in price between a 698RVE and a 950RVE is AU$2300 - the 698RVE sells for AU$24400 ride away. 57kW/63Nm/151kg dry v 84kW/97Nm/178kg dry. Solid argument for the twin.

    Had mine for 2000 miles. It’s the sportbike of SuMos. Whereas the KTM/Husky SM feels a lot more like a big dual sport. I’ve owned an SMC R 690 before the 698 Mono. Pick your poison. I prefer the Ducati. Because I like riding pavement and I can keep it in the proper gear and the revs high. If you puttering around, this isn’t bike for you. If you like revving the piss out of a motorcycle, then the 698 is for you.

    77hp is not that big of a leap compared to a 690 or a Husqvarna so the "most powerful single" is not that big of a selling point i'd say. I'd much rather get an older Hypermotard 796 with the L engine and 80hp.

      I ride a xr650r sm, trust me, no other bikes come close to riding in urban streets. Insane handling, can handle any road conditions, best lane splitters, rugged if knocked over in a parking lot, easy to maintain, hooooots of fun power to weight, lightweight, and performance 0 to 70mph is as good as you possibly could want. Properly geared cruising at 75mph is no problem, plush suspension. Wind is an issue like any naked bike. Ride a goldwing if you dont like that.
