• You rang... although maybe triple the price?

    I couldn't afford a 916 although was considering a 999 but the maintenance intervals put me off, and I like spannering. If you'll regret it not being a Ducati you only live once, plus they're not getting any cheaper. If badge doesn't matter I'd say smart money is on the RSV, they do feel special.

  • it just felt nicer and a little more forgiving

    The 916 must be an animal. If you're not already aware rsvr.net is a great resource.

    In my experience they have a fair few known issues to sort (gen 2's more so?) but once addressed they're brilliant. Bags of character (puts £1 in Italian cliché jar).
