Hi, just joined the forum so 'hello'. Thought I'd contribute to the discussion regarding 1198R and S. I've just taken delivery of my 1198s Corse and thought I'd clear up a few points. The Corse paint job is to support Ducatis re-branding of the new 'Corse' logo, and with most things in life some like it, some don't. Personally I love it, just that bit different to look at. The tanks is a larger (2 litres I think) aluminum race tank which is standard on the Corse over the 1198s. You also get on the 1198s Corse; New Termignoni end cans with the slashed angled rear, not a full system. Rear paddock stand ECU to match the end cans My local dealer (MotoRapido) was feeling charitable and threw in a race air filter whilst they were putting the bike together for me. The UK market didn't have the plaque mentioned earlier on this thread on the 1198s Corse, but I have seen it on either the S or the R in the US - can't remember which. OTR prices today in the UK are approx £193xx'ish for the S and the R comes in at £29xxx'ish. |
