Buy a new Ducati V2 2026 or keep my 2018 MT-09

Sadly I only have room for one more bike in my garage. I also have a sweet Suzuki GSX S 1000gt. I used to have a Panigale 959 that I loved but sadly it was destroyed while parked. I long for my old 959, but the new V2 seems a different less powered bike. I know MT-09 vs Panigale is a bit of apples and oranges and I love the torque and light weight of my MT-09. I am torn. Appreciate any thoughts or experience. Thanks

Do tube amps really sound better?

I want a new amp. Do tube amps really sound different, better? If so, how do they sound better? Which would you recommend for blues and rock?

F800GS very top heavy

Perhaps I am just not used to adventure bikes, but I found the F800GS to be so top heavy that I was constantly dropping it or in fear of dropping it. It is so heavy and the center of gravity is so high. And I’m 6’2. I found it so hard to manage very unpleasant experience. I don’t ride off road and perhaps that is where it shines. Big disappointment as a touring bike.
