Well I was bored and feeling rich today, so I decided to throw a little money round Smile. I returned home, the proud owner of a Ducati 996R Smile.

What do you think? Wink

£19.99 from the model center in meadowhall (for those local) or from https://www.superchamps.de for those that aren't. Features include turning front wheel, removable fairing panels, moving footpegs, moving sidestand, rear suspension compresses, and of course both wheels turn round Smile.

It's a monoposto, as you can see Wink. To ride it you'd have to reduce yourself to one twelth of your current size lol.

It's exactly the same as mine except mine's in red Very Happy Thumbs Up .

I dunno, ducati's one of those manufacturers - like the Mito - they're unreliable if not cared for apparently (and they don't make runarounds - they seem to be strictly special-occasion-only bikes). I'd love a 748 because they're so gorgeous, but while i might afford the insurance of one, I sure as hell couldn't afford the maintenance costs (replace the engine every 1500 miles etc Razz ).

[edit] yours isn't the same as mine, you're would be the biposto Smile.

It's weird, I used to think of the 999 as slightly sexy....
....but as more time goes on I'm beginning to have second thoughts Confused .
