I had a look at one last week when in paying for my new SD.

Although I'm not a fan of Ducati (at all) it did look FANTASTIC.

It looks better in the flesh, so to speak, than the x hundred pages in the latest Bike magazine.

Ducati have hit on a winner. But, the resale values of 999's must be about to hit the floor.


I'd still have an SD any day.
No real interest for me. Styling looks like a copy from the R1. I'm sure it's a great bike and Ducati will sell many of them (especially with the price cut over the 999). But I'll be keeping my SD for a while yet.

Now if Aprilia ever manage to put the V4 into the Tuono....
I think it's a mad sexy bike, but didn't Triumph build it first with the 675? Anyway, the SD is much better looking in a hooligan way. I'm sending in my deposit this week for the 07'. Hopefully I can sell my 950SM in time.
Appart from down the M1 or at Donnington, why would any of us want to go slower for £6k more?
Yes....

think it may be the end of tax year purchase!

But £11500 for the base model....holy shit!

Gotta have the S or wait for the R model. That's gonna put a mega dent in the wallet!

Looks good though, had mates at the S.Africa launch, 'sposed to be the dangles!
I´m keeping mine, had it for two years now and only likes it more and more. Might consider the RC8 though!
I think it looks amazing - nicer even than the 916... but would have to try one out to see if it's worth the extra cash and changing the SD for.

It's billed as a road bike not a track bike, so the comparison with the SD would be very interesting. Let's face it, it's a 2 wheeled Ferrari and I think anyone who says it's not a beautiful bike is lying.

The chances of me buying a Ferrari car are slim-to-none but £11.5k is more within sight.

But then again, I still love my KTM.

Good post.
