Just had one of my DOC members buy the 1199. It's surprisingly comfortable. Not a torture rack like the 999 and 1098/1198. He has a built R6 for racing and he said out of the box, other than dialing the suspension in to his liking, the Pani blows the built R6 out of the water in just about everything.

Realistically for $20k+ and being an 1199 vs a 599, I'd be pretty pissed if it didn't...

$17k non-S model and got a deal on it because he bought an 848 for his fiance too. But I get the point.

848 looks better.
