Hello ladies and gents,
This is the last day I will have ownership of my 959.
I was going to race my 959, but after my novice season or stint I will be bumped to Amateur, which I am already running in their times. The Amateur group pace is very fast, esp when you get to the top 1/3 of the group, and a 959 will not be very competitive against full liter bikes at the track I will be running at.
I am trading my 959 in tomorrow for a 2015 1199R.
Pretty pumped as it is a brand new leftover and is 8k off the original retail price!!!!
I am sad to let it go as it is my first Ducati and I learned a lot on this bike.
I was going to spend the money on exhaust, suspension, ect but didn't see the point in putting that much money in a bike that will still be inferior to a bike I can purchase at less the expense of modifying the 959.
