Ducati 1198s Ridden to the Edge | INSANE POV [RAW Onboard]

[@jeanettewest]

That was fun!

[@Motogents]

Yeah it was,i missing that road so much. Can wait to go back on the bike 👊✊💨

[@mattreb5748]

Jeeze there's not a enough liquid courage and my balls aren't big enough to ride my 09 1198 like that. Total beast mode, thanks for the vid

[@Motogents]

Tnx man,glad you enjoyed it 👊🏼✊🏼💨

Same, Bro. My 1198SE has seen some throttle, but not THAT much.

[@Motogents]

it's not very easy to go full throttle on 1198 that is for sure 🤣

[@burbt6069]

Thanks! I enjoyed that. I’ve got the R version and have done 50K miles on it and know how easy it is to go this fast. You obviously know that road really well as all your gear changes told us exactly what was coming up. Nice road too. I first rode an 1198S in Italy in 2011, loved it and eventually bought one in the UK in 2013. The low down torque is seriously impressive and just grabs you by the backside and fires you up the road. And then there’s the Brembo brakes!! Man those things are insane!! I’ve never felt braking so good on a bike, ever! And they give you so much confidence to up your speed too. Yay! lol. I love my 1198 and my mates here in NZ keep telling me I should buy something newer, but Why? I don’t need anything quicker and the 1198 is beautiful to ride and to look at. It was nice to see you give it some beans in the right places(it goes all blurry when you give it some😂) and give respect to the places that could get you in trouble. I’ll definitely watch this video again if the weathers crap and I can’t go riding.. Thanks for sharing. All the best..

[@1msorry1]

Damn man, I own a 1198SE but it scares me to open it all the way like you do, especially on a public road. You are a beast.

[@coconutpie333]

never heard of a 1198se did you mean a 1198sp ?

[@let98]

This is how a Ducati should be driven 👍

[@NinjaZXRR]

Too bad most Ducati Riders only see it as a fashion accessory to take to a 7-11

[@Solo_1914]

@@NinjaZXRR yes agreed, same like those supercars. How nice if they bring it to track day to unleash the real potential rather than being a paper tiger.

[@Haplo59]

Something hard to give in the video, is the torque sensation. The "low" RPM redline (for an SBK) is compensated with brutal torque, that's thrilling ! This bike is a vibrant torque beast, the last Ducati SBK without electronic filter. And beautifully designed ^^ That's nice to still find content about it. Be careful with connecting rod bearings (oil change EACH YEAR), and voltage regulator (when the screenlight gets off and no turn signals/no lights under the screenboard gets on). I've had one, ridden 9.000km in french alps and corsica, not reliable but by far the most funny AND serious bike I've had. No regrets to have owned one, fantastic experience.

[@Motogents]

I could not agree more,for me the most brutal and most beautiful duc ever 👊🏼

[@Motogents]

And yeah the torque is out of this world 😀

[@GPRracing52]

why was it not reliable?

[@Haplo59]

@@GPRracing52 Connecting rod bearings tend to wear quickly. It can be repaired (fail at 50.000km is consistent), but here in France that's generally a 1.500 - 2.000€ bill. Voltage regulator fails quickly too (placed in a VERY hot spot, just in front of the exhaust collector). The starter is a bit weak too, some have it replaced (the freewheel mostly). Requires a full battery to start easily, battery charger recommended if you don't use it weekly. Mine had all of this replaced just before I bought it, so it's been okay for me (52.000km so far, most brutal torque sensation I've had). It has been conceived stupidly and without long lifetime thoughts, but if you accept to pay for more costly maintenance, it gives you back very strong sensations. That's a truly amazing motor in an excellent chassis, beautifully designed ;)

[@joesniffer9815]

The first time I rode this bike I remember saying after getting on the highway, “Damn, this thing’s fast!” I was barely rolling the throttle. Nice straight Texas roads let me get up to about 155mph before I chickened out.

[@Motogents]

Yeap this bike can be pretty frightening,but it is so fast it have so much torque and it is so fun to ride 👊🏼✊🏼💨

[@valval9947]

Props to you brother. I have a hard time on getting to the gear indicator on my 1198 once I’m passed 3rd. It’s a lot of power and just wants to keep going.

What do you think about what they say that the Japanese are much better than the Italians?

[@Motogents]

I think it's total bullshit, every bike is a good bike in the right hands, and every bike is a reliable bike in the right hands. I have ridden Ducati 848 from 0 to 30000km without a single problem, the 1198s from this video are ridden non-stop like this and not a single problem has happened. If you search deep enough you will find a Ducati that is very unreliable but on the same page, I have heard horror stories about BMW and Yamahas on which piston rods go through the block.

[@DNMtdf]

@@Motogents Hi. I'm glad you mentioned you've owned the Ducati 848 and how reliable it can be. I'm looking at purchasing one, my only issue is heat Ducati's make. In my country South Africa it can get as hot as 30-40°C. Traffic is an occasional thing (hardly), but I will want to ride often. Would you recommend the bike as opposed to a Japanese bike? Thanks in advance.

[@Motogents]

Hi mate,Serbia have very hot summers,temperatures are same as South Africa in average 35 degrees,every bike i had is struggled in city riding in that time of year. I didn't notice that my 848 was worse than japanese bikes. So in my humble opinion it's the same as japanese bikes.If temperature is only thing that bothers you i would say go for it. 848 is very very good bike.
