The RC8 is 10 years old now and a bit of a beast. 170 Hp (factory) and 186kg. It has a full Akrapovic exhaust and quick shifter but apart from that pretty standard. The 790 Duke on the other hand has all the latest electronic bells and whistles - 4 ride modes, traction control, launch control, wheelie control, lean angle sensitive ABS, quick shifter and auto blipper. All of which you can turn off. I didn't think I would appreciate all the latest tech as much as I have but I have to admit it's pretty cool. It is an absolute hoot to ride.
