Ducati 1198RR with full options

**Hard Nut** · 19th September 2009, 21:52

Anyone got one of these?????? with all the bling, bells and whistles.

I think at this stage all I need is $36,000.00

Got a firm price on a Yamaha R1 09 but not sure about this choice

There was one at Manfeild track a while ago. The Bayliss 1198 replica with the triple, linkage, suspension and carbon wheels upgrades installed...

$36K should get you the 1198S with its bells and whistles, but as for the 1098/1198R with its special bells and whistles, spare exhaust and I think ECU, sand castings and about race track ready, expect to pay double that.

Shit

More research required by the sounds of it, maybe cut back on the bells.

The 1198 is not to be sneezed at...olins..traction control etc. a serious bit o kit, unless you are seriously racetrack bound, or have throw away $

I can only imagine how much that costs there as I saw one here in Canada for $89 000

Nice bit of kit alright. A bit extreme unless you are going to use it on the track ,I would think. Very nice though. $85,000 1098R.

If I had a machine like that, its not going to the track

I would be riding it down Lygon or chappel st, parking it out front some posh cafe and order a latte and scones, jam & cream

After much consideration I'm thinking about the Yamaha V Max 1700 cc.........
I can just see myself parked in service stations every couple 100 k's (or less) fueling up this thirsty BEAST, but it just looks so cool.......got to do it and soon.
