Ducati factory had 2 teams in 1998 SBK, ADVF and Ducati
Performance. In fact, ADVF was fully works supported
team than Ducati Performance. And, rider of Ducati
Performance team was Fogarty only (Davide Tardozzi
was supervisor) Lot's of special parts were fitted
on ADVF team machine than Ducati Performance.
This 996 factory was bought by us just after finished
1998 SBK from Ducati corse in Nov-1998. Manager was
Paolo Ciabatti then and still we have good relation
with him. You can see the images of 996 where we took
at back yard of Ducati corse in Nov-1998. 2 engineers
were working on the bike and these 2 guys are still
working at corse.
We wanted to buy late part of SBK model at first,
but so many secret part were fitted on the bike and
Corse didn't allow us to buy it. Because of the bike
was decided to send to Fogarty. So we had to buy the
first part of SBK model.
Difference between first part model and late part
model is, Late one has modifided frame to accept "Deep
air box" and greather "Injection box"
1998 was the first year of MF3(fully computer device)
and we have all of mapping data(The first part of
SBK in 1998) of Fogarty. MF3 is fully working order
and we have manuals,lap tops,cables etc... Ducati
corse may not have those mapping data and very important
section to keep the bike as working condition.
MF3Marelli also has big difference between the factory
and 996RS about disc system. Factory MF3 can view
very detailed information. There is 2D,SD system out
there recently, but this bike was made in 1998 and
could adjust Ignition timing map and injection timing
map arleady. In other words,there were so big difference
of potential to private team and satellite team and
factory team. We took 2 years to get those 98 factory
mapping data, We got them in 2000. Factory mapping
data was highly secret just after the end of race
season and not allowed to obtain.
This early 98 factory has fitted original caliper
made from beryllium. Later year, Brembo noticed that
machining from beryllium induce a cancer. So, Brembo
had to recall all of them and almost impossible to
see them in nowdays. This beryllium caliper works
very well. Controllable and stable at very hard braking
with no strange movements. It's better than market
radial caliper and we realized it was made no account
of cost.
Front and Rear wheels are both 16.5" and we have
another F&R 16.5" and F&R 17" as spares.
Spare parts(NOS) we have is, special crank cases,heads,pistons,crankshaft,valves....too
many to list. Racing suit was used at his retire-race
with his signature and Corse document. Helmet was
used during 1997-1998 with his signature and Corse
document. F&R racing stands are also coming with bike
(Made from titanium)
There is only 2 genuine ex factory 996 1998 in the
world. A few people has 1998 Foggy's bike but these
are after made from bits and pieces, or modified from
996RS. One genuine bike is located at Fogarty's house
and another one is here. Fogarty has posted the comment
on MCN paper and said the bike is genuine and rode
by him until Kyalami GP.

1) Fully working order and original ex factory 996
