Ducati Superbike description

2003 Ducati 999
Gorgeous bike!  I hate to sell it, but unfortunately college tuition is quite expensive.  This bike is loaded with aftermarket parts:
-Termignoni Exhaust (Sounds incredible)
-Ducati Performance ECU (Part of the exhaust package from the dealership)
-Ducati Performance mirrors
-Brembo Brakes
-Stainless brake lines
-Aftermarket levers
-Rizoma open clutch cover
-STM pressure plate
-Ducatbike clutch springs and caps
-CA Cycleworks clutch slave cylinder
-SSr keyless gas cap
-Ohlins steering damper

The motor pulls very strong.  I had a 996 before this bike and I can honestly say this motor is a step above.  Fires right up with no trouble.  Cool thing about the 999 is you don't have to hold the start button, just press it once and it will fire up on its own.  Exhaust sounds incredible.  All in all this bike is great and runs like a top.  It has never been down or dropped.  It has also never seen any time on the track.

The bad:
-There are a few chips in the paint here and there.  Nothing crazy just little things that you'd expect on any bike being ridden.  (see pics and you'll notice they are small and few and far between)
-Bike has maintenance light on.  Last service was completed however you need a dealership to turn the light off using their special Ducati computer.  Last service was done by a private party prior to my ownership.  No check engine lights or anything of that matter are on, just the service indicator. 
-Rear tire is getting pretty worn in the middle

Troy Bayliss and Ernesto Marinelli on the Ducati 1199 Panigale [Video]

Tue, 22 Nov 2011

Three-time World Superbike Champion Troy Bayliss and Ducati Superbike Project Director Ernesto Marinelli sat down together to talk about the new Ducati 1199 Panigale in a new video released by the Bologna manufacturer. The video was shot in a split screen format with the two men answering questions about Ducati‘s new superbike. Of course, the video feature the two lauding superlatives on the 1199, but it does offer some amusing moments such as Bayliss’ “Superquadro” face pictured above and the two men doing their impressions of how the Panigale sounds rocketing down the straight of the Mugello circuit.

Moto2 needs more radical bikes

Wed, 05 Sep 2012

Makers of fine exhausts, Taylormade Racing have built a Moto2 racer that harks back to the innovative machines like the Elf Honda 500 and Britten V1000. Since Moto2's inception in 2010 the class has featured bikes with conventional chassis but the Taylormade bike, designed by Paul Taylor and John Keogh, has a radical design featuring a carbon-fibre monocoque frame, carbon-fibre swingarm, wishbone monoshock front suspension and an under-seat radiator. However, with such radical engineering the inherent problem is that it is a risk for teams to invest in such a project.
