Not sure how many posts discussing this there have been lately but ALL 916/748/996 etc. models frame/VIN numbers have the 'S' after the ZDM916 (or whatever engine displacement), it's the model denomination (just like Monsters are ZDM904'M' etc.) and in a similar way to the engine no. having 'W4' (Watercooled 4 valve) or 'A2' (Aircooled 2 valve) etc. The 'S' doesn't mean it is an S, SP, SPS or whatever other variant there may be, even if it is one - in which case there will be other differences.
Went out to boxhill and back i day/ yesterday to visit friends didn’t bother popping in to boxhill as the boots I orderd still haven’t turned up so was wearing some much much too small for me , done about 200 miles on the bike and love it more everytime I get on it , think the fuel tank is leaking tho because it does smell quite strongly of fuel since I changed the filter and removed all the silicone , Stopped into j&s St Albans on the way home and was tempted into a new lid Better order a new leather jacket too cause mines abit short and won’t zip to my jeans which is bloody irritating more money to spend
Yeah it’s an nxr, so much nicer then my previous caberg and amazing how much difference a proper sports helmet makes to vision and comfort
Yep, thing I noticed first was how clear the visor seemed. It's a bit noisier than I'd like, but maybe I'm expecting to much. Got a stone chip in mine yesterday
@Exige ‘s cables are a must for any ageing Ducati. A new battery will help but a new battery plus the cables will transform the starting of your bike. A cable kit was easily the best money I’ve spent on my 999.
