damn right they are, 999 good looking, they must have had one given to them so they cant say anything but.
it will be a memorable day when Ducati launch their new model and remove that hidious 999-749 from the factory.

I was,in fact joking.
In my opinion,the 749/999 mono seat/tank is a sculptured work of art.
I love my 999.

I love 999's too, they look terrific in the metal and go even better.

I think they're spot on about the 888 as well. To my eyes they are utterly gorgeous, which is why I bought one when I could've had a 996 or a 749S for the same sort of dosh.

I can't fathom why the 916 wasn't in PB's list either, because they are undoubtedly a a gorgeous iconic bike. p'raps their journos are just as fed up as I am that some people think that they are the only Ducati worth didley and never tire of ramming it down yer throat

These day I'm tending towards an ssie being the best looking despite me owning a 4-valver as well. I love the simplicity of the ssie, the supermono derived looks and the on-road performance. My 800ss feel very much like a 748 in many ways - just less power but more torque and just as quick on the road It's shame they're so underrated and overlooked.
