  1. Hey guys! :)

    It's been quite a journey for me from crashing my 998 to returning with a 916 SPS :broken_heart::heart:

    Enjoy:

  5. Thanks guys, happy you like it :blush:
    Guilty as charged :D I just like the looks and simplicity of that one. But it's no match for the 916, that's for sure.

  7. Terrific video so clearly demonstrating how these bikes get hold of you in a way that only a story teller can explain.

    The one consistency in my life is Ducatis. From the 250 Mk III I bought in a box for fifty quid aged 17 to the snarling 1199RS I try to ride at track days.

    I wish I had the talent to make such a video.....thank you, vielen Dank.

    Gern geschehen :blush: Talent is one thing, work is another. I've made quite a few videos before and I'm learning as I go along :bucktooth:

  11. 20+ years on and to some of us, these bikes have not been overtaken. Incredible.

    Question: What sounds better- the new desmoquattro SPS or your old testa 998?

  12. Here you go :D

    That's a really good question! First: Both need the carbon Termignoni racing cans. Some say that the 916's Desmoquattro sounds better. I really loved the sound of the 998, though. I need to ride the SPS a little more to really make up my mind, this needs proper information before making a judgement ;)
