| 748R or 998 that is the question !
Hi all. After years of lusting i've decided to throw caution to the wind and seeing as prices are now pretty decent i'm going to go for a new (or at least 2nd hand) Ducati.
Main question is though - do i opt for the 748 (possibly in 'R' form) or for the same money get a 998? Decisions decisions.
Having ridder neither apart from on the shop floor i'd like to know the differences when riding - eg fit/shape, engine response etc?
I'm coming from a long line of inline fours and selling my Speed Triple as we speak. Oh, and had a Buell once too- which was nice!
Should i go for arguably the connoisseurs choice 748R or for the big 998? And I hear they're not too hard to service yourself too (belts and all) - is this truth or myth?
Many thanks and i've been enjoying reading all the posts on the board as i've been "lurking" these past few months.
Cheers! |
