For 2002, Ducati gifted the 998 the Testastretta motor that had just won the WSBK championship in 996R guise. The new heart was good for 123 hp and 71 lb-ft at the crank, up from 112 and 67, respectively.
What reviewers found most impressive was how quickly the new engine spun up and how compact the complete package was. Motorcyclist said that “overall, this 998 feels more like a 748 that swallowed a really big gulp of nitrous than it does a 996.”
Their review concluded with a simple statement: “Although it inspired Honda RC51s, Suzuki TLs and Aprilias, there’s still nothing in the world quite like the 916, sorry 998, all these years later.”
This example is VIN: ZDM1SB5V62B015645. The seller states “I purchased this bike from a sales executive about a year ago who had multiple motorcycles and cars. After performing the usual service work, the bike runs and rides great.”
