| DSC Club Member BSB Star Bikes: 2009 Ducati Monster 1100s, KTM 890R  Posts: 5,999 Join Date: May 2003 Location: Coulsdon, Surrey...........and hopefully Germany at some point in the future. Mood: I love the Monster and the KTM & I have my wife exactly where she wants me! John W The 998s does indeed have the 2001 996R engine which is a deep sump testasreta lump, However I believe it does not have the `R`s` Ti rods. It has different cams to the plain 998 and a larger bore exhaust system. Not sure about a different engine management system but as I have replaced mt exhaust with a Termi system, it comes with a new management system. By changing the exhaust and "chip" to a Termi system a 998s puts out about 130-134 at the rear wheel, I have also fitted the JHP undertank filter system which definitly makes the engine "crisper". All in all the s model is a better bet to go for if your in the market for one. For your own interst there were only 27 998s monoposto`s imported to the Uk of which only 7 were in Yellow, for you Essex chaps that means that 20 were red!   | |
