| Thanks Guys...
......I'm still considering my options.
Whele - the SPS takes me a lot longer to get sorted than 20 mins, as I change the fairings, tank, wheels, remove, lights, indicators etc.... I swap all of this as I don't want to break anything expensive!
Its just a pain having to change all of these things over each time and if I leave her in track trim, then she doesn't get out on the road.
Its peace of mind, as I know I wouldn't go as quickly if I had road stuff on.
So its a track dedicated Ducati or.......
..........the easiest thing to do may be to get a track/race R6/CBR or similar, there are a few around, some with mild tuning, some standard spec... , these things are quick enough, some of them are putting out around 115BHP at the back wheel - lovely!!
But its not a Ducati!!!!
But to match this power, you either need a SPS or a well sorted 996. Not being too hot on the maintenance side, the R6 will probably require less maint than a tuned 916 and when it does, it'll be cheaper!!!
Saying that, I haven't seen any track Ducatis for sale anyway, so at the moment, there's little to compare.
Phil - you;re right about a change of mind, maybe I'll get a 996R as well!!!
