996R or 998R, 996R..... World Championship winner. 998R came second. 996R is the daddy of the testa engine bikes, the 998R is the pretender, let alone these 999R's which are worth less than 996R's!

I'd have the 996R anyday over the 998R.

your right,996 won the wsb,then the 998 lost to a SP2! so ducati moved on with the 999 & again won the wsb two years running beating r1s,gsxr etc etc.
