Also interested to know. Someone mentioned that with the racebikes the plaque came seperately. If you look on the technical website, there is a seperate partsmanual for numbers 1-150.

Smilo,

All I can tell you mate, my (ex-)996R never came with a plaque. I was never told it was coming without a plaque either.

After many phone calls to Ducati UK by the then sales manager at my dealer, no plaque ever came my way. But we were told the whole 996R story.

Shaun seems to have had better luck than me though, how did you fix the plaque to the top yolk Shaun?

Cheers!

Didn't NattyBoy have some pre-drilled top yoke for taking a plaque?

The letter was dated about a month after the original owner bought the bike in 2001. I knew the history of the bike as it belonged to the brother of one of the lads at work from new.
Therefore it was on when i bought it.

Does the technical website also list the engine numbers for the 2 different batches of bikes?

The technical website, has 2 parts documents listed with nakmes: 996R_M151-01 and 996R_M0_150-01.pdf.
Now they both appear confusingly with an American flag icon. I think on the "old site" they had the European flag. One shows Jan 01 as the issue date, the other Feb 01.

So it seems that the 350 996R machines for the public had the plaque on them for the bling or pose value down the pub. The 150 for racing were just that, racing!

The bling dont count, just the lap time or the win??
