Guys, only people that know what the R or S means, will know if it's really an S or R - so a "poser" is just doing because he likes the "look", or maybe he can't afford the other and wants to pretend. Only my fellow Ducati bubbies know what a Panigale even is, and just a handful know or care if there is an S or R after the 1199/1299, and what that even means.
Call the sticker police! They will sort this out...
Better yet, who gives two ..... and put whatever you want on YOUR bike. Now let's get back to threads that have some useful info and meaning to us all.
BUT I care about what others do. If someone were to put Ohlins suspension on a base model and then put an "S" designation on their bike. I swear that I would type AT LEAST 3 paragraphs of strong condemnation
What if the S came out of the garage after having an identity crisis and has always felt like an R since it was built? After the operation of adding Ducati Corse parts and the Corse and R stickers feeling like it's now complete.
The End...
Ironically enough I saw a kid at the track last month with a bone stock 899 but he printed Ohlins stickers and put them on his stock forks and stock steering damper.
He also had Ohlins stickers on his shock reservoir and even put a Termi logo on his stock pipes :lol:
I couldn't tell if he was the ultimate poser or the most epic troll.

I'm pretty sure that was you
You caught me
You are going to like the new iteration. Im excited about the paint scheme. Also higher quality job and better fit!
Yea I heard it's going to be nice, come to a track day in nyc you can take the 675r
You can look like the black dude in town. He took the emblems off his ford truck and replaced them with Mercedes.... Looks like a fool.
If you want a R just go buy a R?????
Maybe not as much as when you wear that white sheet over your head and parade around your town.
