Lovely bike. Would love to try one back to back with the Gen 4

Will let you know once I’ve ridden it back to back with a Gen 4. Will be hugely dissapointed if it’s not substantially better than a Gen 4, however will find our next spring.
 
I very much doubt you have anything to fear.... it's unlikely to feel remotely like any mass produced standard machine.. pick your superlative...light, nimble, fast, stunning....Hickeys lap I never tire of.. the whine off the engine on the over run is incredible... it's an apex predator....

What a machine !

I guess that comes down to how good you are in a bike really.

wont be as good as the gen4 HP5 race carbon.lol

Lol ......... got my deposit down already !!

Just like the other manufacturers, they will only produce once special edition.

Ducati released the Desmosedici RR, Honda the RC213, BMW the HP4 Race with Carbon Frame.

With all these high end bikes with top top drawer components. It’s all about the feel of the bike.

Irrespective of rider ability it will all be about how it feels on track, the weight, the turn in, the cornering stability, the throttle response etc. A talented rider on a std road bike will always be able to ride around an average joe on a Desmosedici/RC213/HP4 Race etc

It’s a bit like dating a supermodel or a porn star etc and comparing with a date with the girl next door. It’s all personal choice and embracing the opportunities available to us.
