lets just watch the values of 999 drop like a stone now as everyone tries to trade-in for the new model. |
Well any dealer who's livelihood is based on Ducati would say that.
As for 999 prices dropping like a stone - they're at rock bottom anyway and will probably be a bargain for many.
Finally - two points of view, one from a journo friend and the other through Ducati directly states on the one hand impressive power but on the other UJM looks - will that tempt those that have bought their R1s and Gixxers back to the fold - time will tell but if it does look like a UJM best stick to our 99Xs then.
At the end of the day there's lots of speculation, probably best wait for the genuine tune from the organ grinder not the grunts from the monkeys and rumour-mongers. Whichever way up it won't better the 'Sedici
