Cheers, but I don't think I'd go "down" to a little bike from a 1L. The wife is a long ways of from me buying again if truth be told, for now....... The 999 has been a real eye opener.
No mate, the 1098 is my first venture into twin cylinder ducatis. I came from a Triumph daytona, Kawasaki ZXR750, GSXR1000 plus a KR1S.
I believe the 848 might have 10 more horses than the 999, and less weight. Wives can be big stumbling blocks though, i know mine is
Many disliked the 749/999 styling when it was first introduced but these days they are slowly becoming a cult model. I must admit, I love the 999 Fila reps. Any pics of the 999 Cream?
that's OEM fairings that were yellow when left the factory but painted by the stealers when brand new. About £750, apparently its a bitch to rub it all down. Trouble is, the other side is not without its scrapes.....
