  Can you think of a prettier sportsbike than Chris' Ducati? (There can't be many...)

  I’ve found it impossible to fall out of love with the 916/996. Very exclusive riding experience that no other bike will give you.

  90s-10s were the golden age of Ducati Superbikes.

  Great video guys!<br>I’ve owned a 996 since 2003. I’m on my second and have put on a little over 100,000 kms on them in that time. Mine is significantly modified to get weight down and make it more responsive than stock overall. When it’s running properly ( it definitely hasn’t been a trouble free relationship over those 20 years! ) it’s so damn satisfying to ride and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. It’s a true classic of Italian motoring, &nbsp;whether two wheels or four

  we need more content like this. &nbsp;One of the things about old bikes we all really appreciate is how well the riders and the community get to master/know them through the years.

  For the 2001 996, the Showa front forks and Ohlins rear shock was the stock suspension. &nbsp;However, the Ohlins steering damper is a definite upgrade!
