Anyone own a Ducati 998?
 

Hi Guys.

Anyone have a 998 and wouldn't mind sparing me a minute or two of your time? I'm putting together the owners' opinions for next month's Buyers guide on the Ducati 998 for Bike magazine, and am looking for 2-3 owners to have a chat with.


Thanks all.

Sure! If you don't mind phoning abroad...

i have a 998bp , but live in N ireland , but feel free to phone away !!!

U2 me and i will give you contact details

Give me a call on 07980 947579 if you like.

I have a 998r with 15,200 miles on. 2,500 of which went on in a seven day trip last month.

Christ, Ray, you'll wear it out carrying on like that! LOL

I've got a 996R, this was the first Ducati to have the 998 engine and like Ray's bike its done 15,000 miles. (15,300:frog: )

Mine managed 2650 miles in 7 days......told you Ray the 6R's are better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

message me your details and i'll return with my telephone number.

or me. see bike opposite, u2u me if interested

Felix,

As you can see there's a bit of a competition on between me and Mr BDG, despite his bike having a years head start he's only just ahead, 1cc and 3BHP makes ALL the difference:lol:

BDG,

Look the man asked for a 998 not one of them old fashioned 996r, just wait 'til someone needs one for Classic bike or Antiques roadshow:p

Mwah, Mwah,

Ray.

:lol:

Everyone knows the 998R is the ultimate bike in the most loved shape ;)

:p

The 996R is a 998 - the 998R is a 999 - everyone knows that ;)

I've only bought mine a couple of weeks ago so I guess my comments would be a little bit limited but nonetheless well impressed so far.

When does the issue with the guide go on sale?

I've got a 998S Bayliss rep & a 916SPS Foggy rep, i would be able to offer an opinion or two!!

Hi,

I have a 998Bip, tuned up to and well past S/R spec, loads of road & track riding, 2 1/2 years ownership, happy to share my experiences and conclusions.

Email for phone number if you want to talk - (I'm away from 25/6/06 to 4/7/06)

I love the question for the subject of this thread: "Does anyone own a Ducati 998?" :rolleyes:

In a Ducati club. Hahaha! Yep, there's a few of them! :lol: :lol:

I've definitely had more yes responses than on the Honda forums :lol:

Cool, well thanks everyone, the guide will be in the issue on sale in August. Which is our Beauty themed issue, hence the inclusion on the 998.

If anyone feels they can give me a quick 50 words or so on their bike, and their details if they want them in too, even if you've had it two weeks!

my email is khal.harris@emap.com

Thanks all

(You all have lovely bikes)

I have a 998s Monoposto, one of only 27 in the U.K.
