I suspect the reason there is no 1299/1199/899 SF is because it would need a complete new frame and thus all the attachment stuff to go with it. For the few SFs they sell, i doubt it makes much economic sense.
Nine new models at Milan just announced! Including 2 segments they aren't active in. Monster 1200R Diavel X 899 (955) or whatever Scrambler 1200? Scooter?
Lamborghini made the tractors first. There was an interesting programme a while back as to how Lambo ended up making cars. The owner bought a Ferrari which proved to be an unreliable pile of shit so he went to see Enzo and told him he could make a better car.
That was an April fool, reading the comments below .. If they do an 899 with autoblip downshift and a bit more midrange I'll line up with me credit card
According to documents registered in California the 899 will be replaced with a 959 Panigale next year 2016 Ducati 959 Panigale Revealed in CARB Documents
Yes but called 955! Either way I guess we should start guessing the magazine Hp figure, I'm actually going to go with 150hp so only 2hp more but with more 'mid range'. There u go... Watch me be wrong!
It will be Euro 4 compliant which will undoubtedly sap a little power. I think the same bhp figure but more mid range will be spot on too.
Well they will just run 955's surely, I can't imagine the difference will be so much that they can't allow a small amount of tuning for existing 899's and run them side by side like they did with the 848 and 899
Sort of defeats the objective of a single bike series,a fair few new bikes and riders this season,seems unfair on them,then again I am not sure how long the 899 series has left to run.
