Hi all,
Whats the consensus on the DB8?
Its a DB7 minus the carbon fairing and gets an alloy rear subframe, its the 1198 engine instead of the 1098.
Cheers

It looks alot like a db7, but just google "MCN DB8" which should get you some interesting reading.

its featured in MCN and looks amazing... but I would still go for the db7 solo with the smaller engine and all the knobs and whistles. If you can stomach 20 k then 3k more wont hurt you and the wifes best left behind any way As for the engine size I doubt the average rider would be able to use the advantage in cubes any way... _________________ Pomps
