900ss

Do you mean the less desirable IE model? Opps did I say that out loud!:Muted:

 

damn good bike (pig ugly change the fairing did on my 750)

 

looks like it

 

You mean the version famously styled by Pierre Terreblanche, after the hugely valuable Supermono? Ducati Supermono - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

With fuel injection replacing the troublesome carburettors? More power and easier starting....

Then again, the riding position can be less comfortable than the older ones, the suspension is not very good, and the standard silencers are too big and quiet.

 

As I may have mentioned once or twice before (!), I had a beautiful creamy yellow 900ssie and miss it to this day. Cracking 'real world' bike and I almost regret keeping the 999 and selling the ss.
In saying all that, I have never thrown a leg over an older non-injected bike so I may have missed a trick there.

@Loz is your fwend - he loves them, was praising a 750ie only today

 

I had a couple over the years and thought they were both great bikes but not as comfortable as the older carb ones.

 

You should be.............if it's a yellow one.

They are renowned for being real slow.

 

the ie models seem to have lower bar position than the
carby models and are a bit cramped
but not that uncomfy when riding

 

Yeah, I once heard they are nearly as slow as the red ones !

 

They look better without the fairing imho.

 

Got one of each. The ie is marginally better in every way except the fairing
But it must be the ohlins one with the lighter wheels.
