Has anyone noticed on Ducati's website for the specs for the Base and S that the weight increased from 414.5 to 420 lbs this year? The R remained the same at 417 lbs. Does anyone know why the increase?

Honesty???;)..Is it because ABS is now standard???
 
To answer the question, yes... No NON ABS units this season. You'd be amazed at how much that unit alone weighs...
 
I thought the 2013 models all had ABS? At least the base model wasn't available in a non ABS version. Maybe other parts of the country? World?

You know what, you might be right...at least in the US market. I might have to take my "thanks" back.
 
Just goes to show that the '12 Base model (without ABS) was the original Superleggera! ;)
 
Once again, ill-informed...

The 2013 S also was available in NON ABS...

So I would assume you have one in the United States?
Three dealerships informed me the 2013 S in the US ONLY came in with ABS.
not a single one of them ever got, or could order a non-abs S for MY2013.

maybe three dealerships are ......... (its actually possible, i'm not being sarcastic)

THANK YOU!
Red Dawn just had to be "that guy" as did someone else.
2013 S' in the United States all had abs.

I don't know what "suspicions" about me there could be. I own two of them...?

....... idiots.

But I forgot, you went to my Dealership 12/1/2012 and tried ordering a White S, no abs?
Correct?
I think not...

ABS I remember weighed 5lbs.

Its a base with ABS. It was 390 with low fuel light on.
I have since swapped to Akra full Ti system, swapped wheels S wheels and some stuff removed (Kick stand mount, Emissions equipment (secondary air, evap canister, etc.).

Should know next week how much it weighs after race prep. Maybe 370-375?

Anyone know how much S wheels weigh compared to Std wheels?
Anyone know how much standard exhaust weighs compared to Akrapovic full Ti?

Tell ya what. Before I post a screen shot of the 2013 order form, let's make a wager. If there was no 2013 1199S available in NON ABS, I'll give you my racebike (1199). However, if there was a 2013 1199S NON ABS, I get your 1199.

Let's see how educated you really are.

I won't post until I have your answer.

And in case that's too rich for your blood, we will do this:

YOU win, I leave the site and PayPal you $500 as a gift. If I win, you the same.
 
Oh, 2013 1199S NON ABS were only in red. Never said anything about color, but only in red.
