Maybe why more have the 6R than the 8R...

Must have been talking to someone else mate!! :lol:

Despite your elaborate exaggeration!

Flanks,

996r are totally gutless 3 hp less don't ya know, horrible plastic seat, not carbon. :P

Some of the cognescenti prefer the 6r for the reason that it was the last of the line to actually win WSBK but for others the 8r is/was the top of the pile before Ducati called time on the series.

Oi!

The price of that toy you might like has just gone up!

The 6R has an appeal to me because of the Bayliss connection. But there's no doubting the 8R is a better specced bike.

The ultimate machine in the best shape.
