Hey Prostock

I don't ride myself, but I am a big fan of AMA Superbike racing and the Ducati teams rule damn near every year. My ex was looking at getting a Duc (996) after years as a KZ owner, and swore his old crotch rocket couldn't compare to the horsepower and "feel" of the Ducati.

Personally, I'd recommend the 916, especially if you can get one at a killer price. Post pics if you can... love to see it!

The only downfall is that there quite expencive to maintain and upgrade. I personally am a fan of the Japanese bikes, 1/2 the price and 2x the bike.... but if ya got the cash, and want a super sexy bike, Ducati is a great choice.

Here's my scooter.

You guys suck my 01 gixxer (GSXR) 600 was stolen! I am looking to get a new 600/750 in the spring when the weather gets nice.

deniska · 11-20-2002, 03:03 PM

This bike is too hot!

Cyber3 · 11-20-2002, 03:32 PM

A 916 is a sweet bike, but if you are used to say a CBR929 or a GSXR1000/1100 you will be disappointed in the power, is stock form they are a turd.

Before I get flamed here I have been road racing for most of my life, a stock GSXR750 will out right embarrass a 916 on any track.

That being said if you don't mind losing the power and like the style and quality that the Ducks have go for it.

If you are buying any sort of italian motor vehicle, please, get the red one!

Dont fuck up like BradShaw did and buy a non-red ferrari.

Those are nice, but I'm a Harley man myself.

Back in the day I had an 888. God day-um I miss that bike.

I feel like it was a girl I dated in high school and I broke up with her because of, like, peer pressure and didn't discover until later that she grew into a total hottie in college, and now I can't stop thinking about her.

models · 11-20-2002, 06:37 PM

i've had a couple ducatis and a couple guzzi lemans/sport.

now i have a suzuki hayabusa, which makes ALL the italian bikes seem like fragile kid toys.

Supercharged · 11-21-2002, 01:31 AM

I ride a Honda RC51, its a Jap copy of a ducati, with Japanese reliability. First year out it won the World Superbike Championship, and won again in 2002.

If you are gonna buy a Duc get a 998, 916 is old news.
