It's a 10% thang, Ducati 824 doesn't quite have the same ring to it as 749:lol:

Shan't be bothering with one of these new gutless 1098s gonna wait for the 1198r or 1200r, when ya go as slow as I do round the corners ya need BIG BHP to make it up on the straights:frog:

Ray.

Ditto. I absolutely agree Tony. :bouncy:

John:devil:

Someone better tell Aprilia then! as their bikes have both on all the time;)

Was thinking of trying to keep up with 583 DD bikes round Cadwell on the DSC days:eek:

The 998r just can't cut the mustard anymore:eek::D
