wikipedia regarding the XXXS:  "XXXX Ducati XXXS won the Maxisport category for the prestigious international Masterbike XXXX ... received critical acclaim ... MCN ... 'simply the best V-Twin on the planet'... Motorbikestoday.com, ... 'the most desirable, most exciting roadbike on the planet' in XXXX. MotorcycleUSA.com ... 'stupendous' ... 'the epitome of V-Twin power.'
motorcyclist online: "The XXXX Ducati XXX, in particular, would represent the nameplate's height of critical acclaim
This is not the XXXS.  This is the superior, racing version, the XXXR.  
This is piece of Motorcycle history.  Considered by some to be the finest bike EVER made.
The XXXX XXXR had production run of XXX units.  That means there are only XXX of these bikes on the planet!  (The minimum number required to qualify the bike for use in production superbike races.)  This one has been kept in excellent condition by an experienced motorcycle enthusiast with multiple Ducatis.
The XXXR model of the XXXX Ducati XXX has the most powerful Testastretta engine. It pumps out XXX horsepower and XX lb-ft of torque; and it has larger intake valves, longer bore and shorter stroke. Each engine on the XXXX Ducati XXX is hooked up to six-speed manual transmission. Due to its racing orientation, it is lighter than the other two models: XX lbs. lighter, to be more precise. Each XXXX Triple Nine has fuel tank that can hold up to X.X gallons (XX.X liters) with X.X-gallon (X-liter) reserve. With the XXXS or XXXR variants, the XXXX XXX can go from zero to XX miles per hour (mph) in under seconds, and it can achieve top speed of over XXX mph.
The XXXR uses titanium valves both on intake and exhaust, as well as titanium connecting rods, and requiring Ducati to use special valve seats and guides.  This saves considerable weight.  Numerous changes have been made to every part of the bike making this model lighter, faster, and more powerful.  Forged aluminum alloy wheels, more sophisticated engine ECU, and much more.  From Ducati's press manual: "The Testastretta engine of the XXXR ['XX because of the lighter weight]... MEP value... exceeds XX bar.  Information is available for Serious Buyers.
My XX yr old father who can no longer ride it after surgery says "this model is lot revvier because of the titanium, and shortly after this year, Ducati started increasing the engine displacement of their superbikes, so this is one of the last of the XXXXcc series"
