The funny thing is whilst the 999 is not selling in big enough numbers, the 998 wasnt in the end either. When Ducati brought out the 999 they said they would continue making the 998 for as long as people wanted it. 12 months or so later and they pulled the plug on it. As I have said before I dont thing the 999 is ugly, its just not iconic as the 916-996-998 shape was.
