Grafham... they don't have one of those in Poland...
But I did notice when we did RTL back in June, suddenly there are more 999 shapes than 916 shape bikes, and put the two together and the old ones look dated. Don't get me wrong, mine still does it for me when I go down to the garage and uncover it, but I followed Marko's black 999S for miles down the A1 and it looks superb from every angle.
For what it's worth, I think Ducati should be moving forward, not going backwards. The 916 was and always will be a gorgeous, iconic bike, but it's had it's time, it's time to move forward (imho)
