I was just like you - torn between the Duc Hypermotard and the Z1K. Wanna know what made the decision for me? The maintenance schedule on the streetfighter. It has two cylinders, yet the cost of a valve check is twice as much as it is for a inline four...and when you factor in the fact that the inline four has four valves per cylinder as opposed to two valves, you are actually paying FOUR TIMES the amount you pay on the inline four. And, the inline four has a valve adjust interval of 15K - the Duc is 6K. Factor that in, and the maintenance cost is EIGHT TIMES that of the Z1K.
Seemed like a no-brainer to me!

lol glad you liked that.. feel free to use it.
maintenance costs!! wow! I had no idea!
my thoughts were purely based on " it's a race motor; designed to be torn down often" stuff is going to break easier too.
