I won't now be buying the new 'r'. The only bike now worth a premium is a desmodici, but i think that is 10k overpriced. It should be 25k, then my dough is on the table.
There isn't the exclusivity anymore to warrant the price premium on 999r, even reading the official blurb on ducati.com doesn't have that much to get you going about the new bike! after reading about the other 2.
My guess is there will be lots of 'r's sat in dealers showrooms getting dusty!


Absolutly correctamundo!

Though the black is still quite tempting, it would definatly be a bip for me as i understand you can't have a mono stocker in black(why the hell not), & then mono & trick it up for £2500.00 and still have change for a lovely S2R Monster at £5995.00 and thats before a bad bid first.
