About the 999R Fila
The 999R Fila was built to celebrate Ducati’s 200th World Superbike victory and to homologate the 999F03 race bike for competition. Far more than a cosmetic special, the Fila edition features:
- Carbon‑fibre bodywork
- Marchesini forged wheels
- Magnesium headlight assembly
- Race‑spec ECU
- Öhlins suspension front and rear
- Radial Brembo calipers (a first for Ducati at the time)
The livery replicates the 2003 WSBK machines of Neil Hodgson and Ruben Xaus, marking Ducati’s dominant championship season and the first major title of the post‑916 era.
With only 200 units produced, the Fila is one of the lowest‑production Ducati R‑models ever built — a true homologation special and a highly desirable modern classic.
