I loved my 999, I think they were ahead of thier time and in future people will appreciate them more. If Ducati had launched the bike in the same colours/specs as it is now I dont think it would have got he initial negative comments that dogged it all it's life.

The original 999 should never have had silver frame/wheels, they should have looked at the hot 916's to see what turned punters on.

I can't wait for mine to arrive :)
