In the end its all about what you want, neither are practical or justifiable so vote with your heart and If the R beckons, definitely get it. Even a base model is still an awesome bike!
 
R is more pure.... albeit requiring a tonne of extras.
But I don't get the SP2, would rather have a base and choose my own bits. You can even wrap to look like an SP (as I did with mine on my track bodywork)

For me, I’d opt for the R and just keep it stock and just ride it.

SP2 is a poseur bike. I don’t need carbon bits and bobs. Not sure why you’d want a dry clutch on the street. Dry clutch is more maintenance and hassle and wet clutch is better in that application.

The R is a no frills track bike. If you get passed on it, adding an exhaust or carbon isn’t going to make you faster.

So a good friend of mine is buddies with the owner of a Ducati dealership. He knows I ordered a V4R from a different dealer.

He calls me this morning with a proposal.
He asks me if a manager from his friends dealership can call me.

"Sure why not" I like talking bikes just as much as riding them.
Manager calls. We chat.
Basically they have had someone back out on V4SP2. They know I'm waiting for an R. And would I be interested in the SP2?
Told them gimme 24 hours to think about it.

So peeps what do you think?

Why not just save all that money for Starbucks?

I believe it allows smart phone connectivity with the '23 Dash

I don't think it's the kind of connectivity you imagine it is.
The whole thing it's so outdated and pointless, it's not even worth it. Save your money and get something useful.
