My first love was my dad's '96 Duc 916.
I don't care how many times they bore the cylinders and add goofier plastics, I still love the 916.
Nothing like Italian love.

All Original, except for a custom saddlebag set up. A machine shop buddy of mine seamlessly fitted two GS bags on the rear end for last summers ride.

i found a bike rental place the other week, i think it was out of LA or San Diego, and i think all they did was rent ducatis. they had pretty much all the new ones, daily rentals were around $200, except for the desmo which they rented for $1000 a day. might almost be worth it if i could afford the dosh RRBike

I still like the 1098/1198 better. The desmo looks like its got a big f'n forehead. Its too broad. It seems it gets broader with each new version. I also dont like the tail as much.Def dont like the single exhaust

Image

Just a little bigger

every motoGP bike is like this, even the M1
I dont know why they are like that but i think its for aerodynamics so it flows around your body better to get 0.001 nocked off lap time lol.

the 848, 1098, and 1198 all have the same exact everything except for the motor is bored differently
