This isn't the Ultra expensive Desmodici RR. It's the 999 replacement! Several Models ranging in 999 pricing territory.

and the 10 is more reliable...
and the 10 has parts more accessable ( in stock)
Ducs are nice
But they are status statements IMO.
If you ride it on the street you can't leave it unattended, can't ride it any faster on the street anyway,
Nice bike
I'd keep the 10!

DUCATI ANNOUNCES NEW 2007 DUCATI 1098 SUPERBIKE FAMILY
Cupertino, CA (November 8, 2006) - Ducati North America announces the international launch and North American pricing for the new 1098 Superbike.
This incredible new machine produces 160hp and 90.4lbs/ft of torque, which results in making the 1098 the most powerful twin-cylinder motorcycle in the world, with the highest torque-to-weight ratio of any sport bike. In addition, the 1098 is also the lightest open class Superbike available, weighing 381 pounds.
The priority in every step of the 1098 development has been performance first. Every system, every detail and every component has been studied and pared down to its essence in order to increase performance to the maximum. If it didn't make the 1098 lighter, faster or deliver quicker lap times, it wasn't considered.
The 1098 will be available in three versions starting in February. The 1098 Biposto will carry a manufacturers suggested retail price of $14,995. The 1098 S will be priced at $19,995, while the limited edition 1098 S Tri-Colore will be $24,995. The 1098 S Tri-Colore will feature a evocative red, white and green racing livery and a Termignoni performance exhaust system, among other performance enhancements.
Prices in Canada will be $19,995 for standard version, while the 1098 S will be $24,995 and the Tri-Colore will be $29,995.
"We are very pleased to announce not only a radical new Superbike family, but also a brand new competitive pricing structure. We have worked very long and hard to make this happen, and we are excited to introduce this motorcycle to the American public at the Seattle round of the International Motorcycle Shows, which happens December 1-3," said Michael Lock, CEO of Ducati North America.

Imagine how a zx 10 would handle with ohlins forks and shock and you would still be under the price of the ducati.

I've got all those goodies on the 10 (Trax-Dynamics S-Bike Cartridges, Penske 3 way Ti Spring) & countless other goodies & It F**kin flies!
Hey, wait a minute!
I'll keep the ZX10 & Get the 1098 w/ the money I got from selling that sexy old 65 Panhead on Ebay a few months ago.
I'll let you guys know how it goes when I got it!

381 claimed dry weight...
the manufacture's weights are never what they claim.
" You said yer wife was gonna kill you if ya got another bike...remember? "
This bike is for business purposes though right?

So, it's not as light as my 10R at 379 "Kawasaki claimed" dry weight...and I'll just bet my 10's faster than that overpriced spaghetti maker anyway.

I've been attracted to the Aprilia RSV 1000R but again its a slow-dawg compared to the Jap litre-bikes and costs 40% more.... and I'm not riding for the "look at me and my expensive bike" factor. hmm then again the ZX10 and 1R looks awesome too, WTF am I talking about
