Cool bike. Seems kinda high-priced tho. Guess I'd have to see it in person.

maybe you can convince them to part it and replace some of the damage done by the garage ghosts'
also, what would you pay for said bike? I like it.....I want it.....but soon-to-be may shoot me down

Hehehe, that's what I thought then felt really bad for even thinking of being such a heartless canaibal
As far what that particular bike is worth... that's a tough one. You'd really have to see it.
But here's something to think about if you're looking at getting a superbike; my recent garage mishap was a real come-to-Jesus moment - there is just nothing on that bike that is inexpensive to replace. In fact, I've found that the previous generation superbike (916/996) has used (read, "eBay") replacements parts that are sometimes HALF what an equivalent 999 part would be - front rotors being just one example. Plus, I think most people prefer the looks of the 916-series bike anyway (ergonomics maybe not so much
Jari, a 996 owner who recently moved, called his "The Gym Bike") !
Which is not to say I don't
love
my SBK; I'd just recommend maybe broadening your next Ducati decision beyond a 999. Weird coming from me I know, but seriously, McKraut had a
totally
bad-ass 900 SuperSport - full fairing, red, sexy square headlight
- that was cool as hell. It had the superbike lines but was air-cooled, and had less valves to maintain. Which may not sound like a big deal but... DAMN, Testaretta motor maintenance will make you pucker for sure. And the cost for a nice SS could easily be half of what a nice SBK could cost (easy sell to the missus if there ever was one! Hell, just buy it
for her
).
So! Bet you didn't think you'd get a novella in response to your straigh-forward question, did ya'? Has it stopped sleeting yet?!?? [moto]
LET'S RIDE, dammit!!!!!

Assuming for a second that you're wanting a SBK, while you might get into an older 1 cheaper, there are some advantages to newer. i.e., the 1098's have more HP, better brakes, & prolly some warranty time left
You can also buy an extended warranty if you buy a used 1098. Also, stuff like the TTX shock will fit a 1098, but not older bikes...
