1299 Free Akro,s

I've done a big old review about it have a read and listen. Updated it today with wet weather thoughts.

 

Yes I read it, a very good write up. Made me even more impatient!

 

Rode one in the summer, fast or slow it was sublime. Could not fault it.

 

So no termig deal on 899 ?

 

Excludes 899, 1299S and 1199R.

Bugger.

 

That's no good at all, the majority of sales will be across the models excluded?
Come on Ducati, we know you need to help fund your sister companys law suit for the omissions scandal but give us bikers a break

 

899 is being replaced by 959

 

Ah, will that be Soon ? Maybe at motorcycle live?
Do you know the differences other than a bigger motor?

 

955cc, 1299 styling and some electronics, slipper.

Unveiling in 2 weeks

 

Sounds the biz, thanks for post MCL could be a very expensive day out for me.

 

. Brave man like your style , so glad I test rode it saved myself 20k

 

One I rode was absolute pig under 80mph .

 

had a quick shot of 1299 must admit preferred my 1199, only did about 15 miles tho still up to 150 ish didn't feel stable for me , only a light weight tho

 

Soon as I jumped on my 1199 I liked it

 

what I cant understand or not sure of there is a post , quite a long one about a review 1299 on this forum, would a brand new 1299 not be restricted to 6k revs until the limiter was removed ?? perhaps I am wrong but im sure my 1199 had a limiter on it until the first service, as I know in the post the OP seem to love it .I didn't get the same feeling.

 

Yes I wrote it and no it's not restricted to 6k bmw s1000rr are though.

 

are ok , yeh had a bmw this year they are restricted to 9k until first service,

 

1299 I test rode only revved to 6k same as 11 jimmy

 

well I was sure my 1199 had a restrictor on , but not to worry

 

1299 base I have definitely doesn't
