Ducati tried to cash in on the popularity of the hand-built, limited edition 996R, by producing a not-so limited run of 998Rs.

They just used the 998R to test some of the components of the new 999 engines before they squeezed them into the 999

Go for the 996R - you and she will be much more appreciative.

This is just because I was quicker on Tuesday isn't it!

I seem to remember that you did come past me on Tuesday, but you also went past the edge of the track and into the dirt at the same time. You then feinged some "kill-switch" incident when you struggled to keep up!!!
