my friend said he would pick me up another bike as a gift, so I'm trying to figure out what I should get.
I really like the 05/06 R1, but it might be cool to have a duc 1098 or something if he can find one. I've heard ducatis have lots of mechanical problems though... anyone here have experience with them? I also like the 05-07 1000rr. Which of these should i get?

as far as problems on ducatti i don't know, but i can tell you those italian parts are expensive as hell!!! R1 is, IMO, by far the most styleistic literbike, with ZX-10R #2 GSX-R 3. likewise an R6 is the best looking midweight. and guess what. I'M GETTIN' A R6!!!!!! but anyway, i would go with the R 1 based on a looks only preference. that's all that really matters anyway. not like you will take these bikes over 60% of their potential anyway!!! -'!'- whatever you get make sure you stay inside your limits.

The Ducatis are bullet proof, they just require more maintanance. I loved my 1000rr and would suggest that as it it very forgiving for a liter bike.

lucky dude. ducatis are prone to needing more work than japanese bikes, but it's worth it to have the v twin sound. if you want to get a true performance bike, get a ducati 999, even the paul smart 998 kicks ***. if you get an r1, get a 50th anniversary, they come with oversized brembro brakes, marchesinni wheels, ohlins forks, and rear shock, the bike is stacked.

Get a Suzuki GSX R 1000, or the 1000 RR.

Hey Ron.....You're the guy that has the friend that steals bikes right?
Hell, if he's gonna go get you a new bike...why not go with a Busa at least that way when the cops start chasing you you can make a fast getaway.
I love this guy.....LMAO.

The Suzuki GSX R 1000 is the best buy for your money. Next would be the CBR1000RR.
