Don't tell me they are racing a 898 in the Super sport! It seems Ducati must win at all cost fair means or foul.

Rumours are very shortly, priced at just below 10k.

Will have a wet clutch though unlike the 1098/1198.

Wet clutch. Does that mean it won't sound like a bag of nails whilst ticking over?

I do love the R6, although as its been my only bike I think a change is required at some stage & don't want to go straight to a thou.

Yea I'm not all that keen to have a thou for a track bike. It would be interesting to see how one of those goes on track. I'm pretty sure you'd give it a good ragging. hehe
