You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.234.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:36, 2 January 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Ducati 999''' is a [[Types of motorcycles#Sport bike|sport bike]] made by [[Ducati]] from 2003 to 2006. It superseded the [[Massimo Tamburini]] designed [[Ducati 916]], [[Ducati 996]] and [[Ducati 998]] range of superbikes. This motorcycle enjoyed great success in [[Superbike World Championship|World Superbike]], and was raced in the series through the 2007 season, despite no longer being produced, pending rules changes by the series' governing body, [[Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme|FIM]], to allow competition of the new [[Ducati 1098]].

The 999 was designed by [[Pierre Terblanche]], amid much controversy over its styling. It is known as a high performance, race oriented motorcycle. With its traditional [[Ducati]] L Twin Desmodromic Valve actuated engine layout, it has a linear power delivery, with high power and torque figures available even at low RPM. Additionally, with its high spec suspension and trellis chassis, it is one of the finest handling motorcycles for its time. 
The Ducati 999s value and the Ducati 999r value are growing fast.
The most beloved are the later model Monoposto with SBK rear trailing arm.
S and R models in good shape are going over 20.000 euro and rising. 

Subsequently, more powerful 999S and 999R versions were introduced, both capable of 0-62&nbsp;mph (0-100&nbsp;km/h) in under three seconds; and a top speed of over ((convert|170|mph|abbr=on|-1)).

The 2005 Ducati 999S won the Maxisport category for the prestigious international [[Masterbike|Masterbike 2005]] comparison and finished second overall. It has received critical acclaim from many corners, such as MCN of the U.K. which called it "simply the best V-Twin on the planet", and Motorbikestoday.com, which described it as "the most desirable, most exciting roadbike on the planet" in 2004. MotorcycleUSA.com described it as "stupendous" and "the epitome of V-Twin power." Also known as “the F1 of the motorcycles” in 2005.

==Racing==
From the start the 999 was very successful in the [[Superbike World Championship]], winning world championships in:
* 2003 [[Neil Hodgson]]
* 2004 [[James Toseland]]
* 2006 [[Troy Bayliss]]
[[Gregorio Lavilla]] also won the [[2005_British_Superbike_Championship_season|2005 BSB Title]] on a 999 F04.
