1198 1198 Review

I really enjoyed riding my mates 1098, I must try an 1198 on track one day.

 

Mine is a 1098. Still pretty bonkers !

 

I call base and S 999’s 998’s

 

I think you are missing out @Exige - need to get yourself a genuine 1198 while you can

 

It’s like Ronseal. If it’s not on the tin, it’s not the real stuff

 

So....is the Multi 1200 really a 1198????? I'm so confused now......
And didn't the Pani 1199 have a 1198 engine???? How the hell do people order spares!

 

Now that’s just silly

 

You silly billy.

 

Oh no, my new Panigale R is actually an 1198. I've been right royally ripped off here.



So a 1098R is an 1198, a 999 is a 998, a 1199 is an 1198 and a 749 is a 748. WTF is going on in that bloody factory?

Bloody Brussels

 

Italians and numbers = @finm and Politics

Shit at it

 

Just be glad they stopped using MCXCVIII

 

Show off

 

Ducati MXCVIII R has a certain ring to it.

Obviously @Exige will say it's a MCXCVIII R

 

It's a MCXCVIII R is it not

 

MCXCVIII = 1198

MXCVIII = 1098

But thanks for proving the point.

 

I was going to check, then I thought nope - can't be arsed as he wouldn't be that devious

 

If you have a fake 1198 (like this one), may I highly recommend that you get it out and give it a damn good hiding down some smoothish flowing roads...dual carriageway with roundabouts if necessary.
Get some brake dust and flies on it...don’t just leave it in a shed/garage/lounge/conservatory....it’s a criminal waste of a fakkin fantastic bike!
Just been to the dealer to see how much they would rob me for a clutch.....just under a grand for plates, hub and basket! Hahahahahahaha!!

 

Wow, you finally got it out a proper 1198 too I see
