Peet, you are the MAN!:biggrin

BTW -- anyone can download the OM from Ducati's website.

youtube dyno run of the 1098s...


Found on ducatisit.co.uk
NIce! ... but I wonder why they go through the gears instead of a roll-on over the RPM range in say 4th or 5th gear. In fact, the dyno chart is not indicitive of a dyno run going through the gears.

Also for the doubters on the stock exhaust note ... that is it right there.

WOW Peet, it's no wonder you had such a big cheese going at the end of the video. I am very happy for you and I can't hardly wait the three months for my own. Sounds absolutely wicked too.:wflag

ooooooo
just heard and saw that video

oooooooooooooo
i'm NEVER going to be able to wait 4 more months (AT LEAST) for MY bike

hey.....
please go out and ride her
and post 1,000 riding impressions
i know that you'd rather be riding than typing

maybe you should get a BlueTooth headset and cell phone.....
then you can call me while you are riding
and i'll type what you say :biggrin :biggrin :biggrin :biggrin

Sweet!!....same for me, downloaded it and it works on RealPlayer. I'm a low tech dood, so when I downloaded/saved it I didn't notice and saved it to "Desktop". Now I have an icon on my desktop "1098Ssound" and I can pop it up whenever I need a fix :biggrin
