What an object of desire!

From a riding POV Sports bikes have never been my thing but I admire the engineering and love the looks.

Stunning bike but if you need anti-wheelie stuff, you probably shouldn't be riding such a beast?

I get TC, makes sense, anti-wheelie though?

Even Rossi has anti-wheelie! You can probably set this to limit the angle too, so you can pull monster wheelies with minimal skill.

Yeah, but...

I wish I could have this in my collection. I prefer the S to the R, a friend runs a new R model and finds it very peaky for a twin

Definitely something i'd want to try on track!

Beast. Very cool.

Thought the WSB exhaust spec was going on these? Cancelling my order right now

The R.is FAR better than the S on track. The S motor is too road biased and has too much torque in the midrange. So driving off.of.corners it gets its knickes twisted and the TC keeps jumping in. The R.has a nicer delivery and let's you wring it out. Peaks on road maybe but it's a race bike.

Someone from Ducati said on the 1299 forum that they're going to update all 1299 with this new drift control thing.
