The Monster left with its new owner today, I miss it already… but I think I’ll be ok this year, what ya think?
You’ll be just fine LOL. 
Congrats…
nice bike :tup:
Nice pick up :tup:
748? 996?
nice… when were the valves last done? Please buy termis and a vented clutch…
Love the solid red, and it’s always Duc’s that can pull that off.
Thanks guys.
Its actually a 98 916, 5600 miles, 6k service completed (everything from valves to rockers were checked and replaced as needed). Has Fast By Ferracci slipons that sound glorious, ohlins shock, ohlins dampener, race ecu, and a few other bits. Probably first thing I’ll do it a clutch cover, but honestly it needs nothing. I just can’t wait to ride it. I’m expecting to crap my pants the first time I get on it a little…
i like it better than the monster, but i dont like the front =( is there a conversion kit to put a 848 1098 or 1198 front on? still nice pick up though
I love the sounds of these, that dry clutch is crazy though.
compared to the monster, i’m sure it will feel much faster…
But even with the mods, it probably doesnt make more than 115 whp… (if that) so you should be alright… just be safe.
I want to ride an older ducati sometime, everybody says they paved the way… one day, sigh.
i wasnt aware they have a dry clutch, easy to ruin then?
Dry clutches have been around for a while, they’re stable… I’d rather have a wet clutch though.
torture rack… got some seat time on one of my customer’s 996’s, it’s still fun though.
That’s what I hear, but my friend has a 94 916 his uncle bought new and he says even though its uncomfortable, it doesn’t bother him as bad as people say, especially when he tearing through mountains in VA.
You’ll have to come out for some of our group rides, we try to make it out to Dino BBQ a few times a season, I’d like to see this bike in person :tup:
Cool man, I’ll probably ride with more people this year, I wasn’t too keen on being in larger groups last year so I usually only ride with 1-2 other guys if anyone. You guys make your way out south of Rochester ever? I usually go down rt21 and roam near the finger lakes.
ugh Drooooooollllllllllllllllllll
I’m not a fan of big groups, usually just 2-3 seasoned rider friends at most
I like it. Glad you stayed with Ducati.
My sister goes to RIT.
Nice bike btw.
