hi guys whats the difference in an 08 model and an 09 model if any

I believe just the forks on the S model, and the standard is the same. I could be wrong though.

To me it looks like for 2009 they replaced the Black color with White on the standard model.

The S model now has Kayaba front forks instead of the Marazochi.

That was all I could really see.....the price has gone up for 2009 as well.

Black available on S only for 2008 and 2009. As far as I know, a standard in black was never available.

Your right, my bad. They added the white for 2009.

Why the change in forks? Are Kayaba better than Marzocchi? Also, why
2 mm smaller?

Kayaba offered Ducati a better price than Marzocchi on a truckload of those particular forks.
