I'm with fil2. Anyway - after a year or two they'll be making them in the hundreds and selling them for £10k with higher spec components. It's what they usually do innit?

Ducati have done a good job on the styling apart from the front view.Hmm,Ive seen that face before,...its coming to me,...oh yeah,its one of those Sea Devils off Dr. Who.

Interesting quote on www.motorcycledialy.com,

"Each Ducati Desmosedici RR owner can benefit with a three-year warranty and three years of scheduled maintenance, free of charge".

Good news for anyone that can afford one!!!

I have my lottery tickets! hehe

Cheers

very nice! Is it not about £35k for the magnesium/carbon loaded one, with a "less expensive" one being released later for about £15k? I'd have one of those,

Dont think it looks like a ZX6R. I have one of those and the lights in the Duke are much sleeker. Goes to show Ducati dont need to reinvent the 916 to come up with a fantastic design, some real clever detailing going on there.

Didn't Ducati issue a denial that a cheaper version would become available?

i dont see why everyones so hung upon the pirce, you can buy a mv for £30k thats nowhere evcen near winning a wsb race leat alone a motogp race/title !!!

that bike is stunning and if i could afford one i'd have one and i'd ride the damn thing too, theres no way it would just sit in the lounge and never get ridden

ducati have also denied that they will homolgamate it for wsb racing too

How long before a race team owner buyes a couple of these and goes WSB/BSB racing. I cant see what would stop them. In anything other than a factory team the 999 is not competitive with the fours and so £35.000 would be a bargain for race team who will have 200bhp before they even think about tunning. Foggy Petronas seem to be able to race bikes that are not even and wont ever be in production so I see no reason why these RR's cant be bought and raced. I have to say that I dont want to see the twins disapear from the grid but in a place where money and winning is the order of the day I see it as a for gone conclusion. (Maybe someone will point out the error of my ways)

...has whinged about it's lack of pannier carrying capability and the limited colour options available yet ?

I've been wanting a reason to say why I have Ducati's since they've *only* been winning WSB and BSB races, (please don't start going on about why they're winning) - and this is it .... it's a *modern* looking beauty and I've got my kidney and testicles on eBay
