1198

Have been riding Dukes for over thirty years and want to get something with more go than my 999S and am having trouble deciding between the 1198/1199; do fast continental roads, twisty stuff, and fast-group track days. I thought this place would be awash with threads comparing the 1198 to the...

The thread is about me riding my Panigale 375 miles yesterday, and a comparison to my friends 1198S. But first a little background.. My friend and I both have three bikes each - myself a BMW 1600GT, Kawasaki Ninja 1000 and the Panigale. My friend has a Yamaha FJR, Ninja 1000 and Ducati...

I did some searching on here and the other forums since I've pretty much decided on the 1199S but read about how insanely hot it is. I will not have the opportunity to ride one before buying so Id like to know how it compares to the 1198. When my bike was stock it was absolutely unrideable in...

Does anyone know if the Pirelli Diablo II will fit? they are 200's but the only difference is they are 50's instead of 55's....

While I own a Panigale R and understand this is an 1199 forum, many of the Ducatista own 848/1098/1198 series bikes so this may be to their benefit... Put these on FleaBay and didn't seem to gather any attention last week so figured I'd post them in a more appropriate place. For Sale...

Hi guys, Im after a second set of wheels for tracking and was wondering if a set from an 848,1098 or 1198 will fit with no problems?! Thanks in advance :confused:

Out riding our amazing back roads in Cole Camp MO, my buddy following me on my 1198 fails to commit to a bend, stands the bike up and go straight into ditch. Prior to that he had good lines and riding form, I think he got spooked when he came in a little hot on the corner just before and...

Anybody on here have both bikes with full termis? It seems as though people are saying the full termis on the 1199 arent as loud as they were on the xx98 series? Can anyone give me a comparison? I also remembered how my full termis took away torque on my 1098 compared to stock.....is it the...

Don't care what anybody says, I'm in Love with this Bike. :p It's Like my old GSXR 1000 K6 AND 1198 SP put together and More more much much more, lighter, smother, Quick,confident too confident. I Have ridden the BMW s1000rr twice on track with CALIFORNIA SUPERBIKE SCHOOL on sport mode and...

Is it me,..... reading between the lines of some of these reviews (alan cathcart/ben cope)....that the new engine hasn't got the punch of the 1198 off the bottom end.

Tuned for top end, clearly, but the numbers (from a pre-production version obviously) look mighty impressive!
