My understanding is that there will be a 1098 base model, a 1098S with all the usual Ohlins stuff and a few bits of carbon thrown in and the 1098 Tri Colore which is simply a hyped up version of the 1098S (pretty paint job and the Termis thrown in, plus maybe a cover and a stand as well). The R version is only available as a 1200 (1198cc) version and is not due out until 2008 in line with Ducati's entry into WSB and back in AMA that year and for homologation purposes. Anyway about this airbox? ...as we seem to have got off topic here!
