Ducati 999

The Ducati 999 superseded the Ducati 916, Ducati 996 and the Ducati 998 range of superbikes in 2003, and was produced through 2006. This motorcycle enjoyed great success in the Superbike World Championship, and continues to be raced in the series despite no longer being produced, pending rules changes by the series' governing body, FIM, to allow competition of the new Ducati 1098.The 999 was designed by Pierre Terblanche, amid much controversy over its divisive styling; it was heavily criticized by some, whilst being hailed by many. It is known as an extremely high performance, race orientated motorcycle. With its traditional Ducati L Twin Desmodromic Valve actuated engine layout, it has a linear power delivery, with high power figures available even at low RPM figures, and, of course, extremely high torque levels. Additionally, with its high spec suspension componentry, rigid yet communicative trellis chassis and weight distribution suited to communicative, sharp and accurate steering, it is one of the finest handling motorcycles for its time.
