If I was to part with my 748R, it would have to be the 848

749R is a very nice looking bike but.....

the 848 is probably a better bike

999 very much the same bike for 4 years of racing and competing on an equal footing more so than all the ducati superbikes previously ever!!!!!!!!..........and THE most succesful ducati racing bike ever.........fact!!!!!!!!!!! the multistrada ............diffffferent, yes but unique ducati thinking for the good or bad!


848 a cheap alternative to compete with the japs............and totally against the ducati way!!!!!!!

On what do you base this? Pure cc limit again without considering the extra tuning the 999 was allowed over it's 4 cylinder WSB competition?

Open the other eye too?
