I choose the 1098 as I like the design was a great contender for Superbike titles was easy to work on and still a twin that went back to twin rear exhaust and 13 years later would still like to own one .

I would as well.....but if I had to choose the greatest Ducati superbike of the them all.......916/996/998 line. More SBK titles from different riders....4 for Foggy, 1 for Corser and 1 for Bayliss....than any of the others. The design was revolutionary. No Ducati before the 916 had a single sided swng arm, or the exhaust tucked under the seat. Easy to work on....and still gets looks any where it goes...including from me, and I just rode it.

916 for me. The poster bike of its era. Sadly I've missed the boat on them being affordable so I went a 848 instead. Without electronics it still has my old 900s2 feel and almost the same capacity but with more than twice the power and it actually handles.

I have a 97 748 and 2020 V4r and love both bikes. I just think it’s because they are so different. For me the V4r is more comfortable on the longer rides but the 748 is still a blast to ride.

People like YOU are why I rarely post on forums and especially Ducati forums. I stated my opinion and you had to post an a-hole response. Re-read the thread then reflect on it. Never met another Ducati person WITHOUT an attitude unless they were pro riders paid to ride a Ducati.

Btw, I've owned since new and still own a 999R, a 1098R, several other Ducati's including a V4 and 13 other bikes, started racing in the 60's as a youth, still do track days and ride daily on the tightest roads in the Santa Monica Mnts wearing the sides off my tires every two weeks. I thought maybe someone might want to consider an opinion from someone with a wee bit of experience of what works well.

So do you want a medal or a chest to pin it on, LOL
I have been on 2 wheels since the late 50's, Mate done all the track stuff, Nah! don't need to brag.

Whichever one you happen to have in your garage, which in my case is a 749s--so I'll vote for that.

996 for me (or any of the 748/916/996.998 variations)
Why? It was the one that got me hooked, both lusting after one in the local shop and then watching them in awe on tv.
Then I finally got one and I am hooked!!
Plus, they're beautiful.

Is there anything that compares the H3 model?

Ducati has a long history of building performance-oriented Monsters. The 1200R is the highest-performing Monster to date, with a claimed 160hp on tap, Öhlins suspension, and modern electronics.

So you copied this verbatim from post #2, or just an exact coincidence? Maybe you’re the same person?

It's just another scamming asshole trying to bump up his post count to look "legit".
