The Ducati 1098 (lust on two wheels)

[RickC1957]

Front looks like a CBR-RR, Tailsection from the 999/MV, and the middle from the 916. I like it, but it doesn't really have a personality of its own. I actually like the 999 better, but I think I'm the only one. Hopefully they'll sell leftover 999s at 8K because they're now "obsolete."

Ohhhhhhh 999s for 8K? sign me up baby:D

I agree, I like the 999 much better, IMO it was a giant leap forward.(maybe to far?) IMO the 1098 is a step backward. (except in performance)
I can't wait to see the two bikes side by side, that will be the real test.
I wonder which bike would make the better SPORT-tourer?

Interesting how the number 109 affects me. I am drawn to it. Same with the Suzuki M 109 whatever. All I see are Messerschmits

Jaw dropping awesome bike
