I`m shifting the V Rod and I`ll be happy to replace it with a Hypermotard, But I dont think I would sell the Hodgy to get the 1098, As gorgeous as it is, I dont think its that much more gorgeous then the Hodgy and the 916/996/998 feels like it comes straight from the track, with it Dzus fairing fastners etc...it feels more like a "race" bike with lights on. (Just have to wait for them to start racing it I s`pose)

The 1098 is way more sexy then the 999 though, just thought I`d point that out

So yes to the hypermotard and a Hhhhhhhhmmmmmm I`ll have to wait to see and ride the 1098S.

looking at Fast by Ferracci website they price the 999 at $17995. Ducati UK at £11250. ratio of 1.6.
So 1098 should cost £12,300, realistic?

end of 07 or 08 for me, only just got the 999s,no rush yet.

[996]

Yes,I've had the demon on my shoulder all week telling me to buy one...so I have.

Really wasn't convinced till I saw some proper pics,but think the visual and the performance are on a par.Job done.
