Ducati 999 2005 Experiences and Expert Review

Der Horvath

The Ducati 999 is aimed at riders who value character, sound and an engaging riding experience more highly than maximum practicality for everyday use. The powerful L-twin cylinder engine, the dry clutch and the precise chassis deliver an unmistakable old-school Ducati experience. In return, it demands more attention at low revs, when it comes to maintenance and when selecting a well-maintained bike. Its controversial design makes it comparatively accessible within the Ducati world.
