pics........ Leaked: Ducati 1199 Panigale R Superleggera Detail Photos I will keep to my yellow shed for now
No, that just isn't so. Capirossi ended up in 3rd place with 229 points to Hayden's 252 and Rossi's 247. He scored no points in Barcelona after crashing which was not remotely his fault, injured himself and managed only 15th at Assen as a result. How does that qualify the bike as "shit" and the Ducati "struggling"? You just have a short memory.
and rossi crashed and hayden dnf'd what if what if...glidd.. what if england never missed a penalty wed have won 5 world cups by now....but its not that simple is it !!! im a realist - not seeing things through deluded rose tinted goggles strong words perhaps too strong but basically shit and struggling - as i said other than stoner in 07 it always has been imho. not a good handling bike at all.. as I said if you read again 06/07 were its best years, still bad point and squirt handling but awesome engine that saved the day. either side of that - awful, and dont mention the satellite bikes pramac, d'antin etc...they are shocking but then if one of the fastest proven riders keeps rocking up in 6th etc then that says alot.
So this RR is it to homologate new stuff to succeed in racing or is it a money making idea? Because surely the race panigale is on the money with its allowed weight? I dont see that much improvement in power or how it makes the power?? Or anything that will improve its ride ability ? and the timing of its release is before the new saviour arrives to influence it? Dont understand......
