| 996S - "As everyone knows, Ducati's 996 is a piece to be lusted after. It's still the sexiest, I'm-gonna'-get-me-some bike out there, and it doesn't disappoint on the track." |
|
996S - "the Duc' looked me in the eyes and called me bad names because I wasn't doing it justice, but I didn't mind. That's just the bike's character. Whatever you do, the 996 has you covered and makes no bones about letting you know it."
|
|
996S - "With the 996 it's lust at first sight. You want to love and cuddle the damn thing, buy it flowers and get it into your bed (or garage)." "When the duck is finally yours though, your eyes will not stray. "
|
|
996S - "Now, with the Mille, and because it's a little umm chunkier, I get mixed feelings and hear mixed comments about her. I'm really not sure. It has all the nice bits, but not in the same graceful proportion as the Ducati. It offers the RC51's great gas and go traits and you will fall in love with this bike, but I do honestly feel at some point in its ownership, you'll be looking over your shoulder at the skinny 996S and wondering, what if? "
|
| |
|
748SP - "never letting you feel like you were anywhere near the bike's edge, but that you were always well taken care of by seignore' Ducati."
|
|
748SP - "The Ducati was in its element at the racetrack. Roland Sands, the 1998 AMA 250 GP Champion, said that no matter how fast he went on the 748 he felt like there was a whole other level of performance. Most testers agreed and said that no matter how fast they rode, the Ducati still had something left, even if they didn't."
|
|
748SP - "Sales brochures and magazine photos do no justice to something as beautifully styled as the Ducati Superbike models. In this instance a red 748 Strada was the subject." "Nothing else smells, sounds, or feels like a Ducati."
|
|
748SP - "My first impression was an assured feeling of being a faster rider on this modestly powered machine than I could ever have hoped to be on equivalent Japanese bikes."
