It is gorgeous - they spent a fortune on photography, though. Heck, those photographer could probably make a KLR look good! :eusa_drool:

The pictures have been out a while. Ducati sent an email to Ducati Club members asking marketing questions about the bike. The response was so positive it will be on the showroom floor next spring. I told them they needed a 200 mile gas tank and 30" seat height. I don't think they will listen to me.

Some angles it looks great, others... not so much.
I bet it winds up costing $14k USD.

I think this new "streetfighter" from Bimota is more interesting, but not so pretty:

very much SuperDuke/Benelli/Brutale influence (influenza?)

I'm REALLY not sure about the 2 piece swing arm set-up - looks cool, but..... can you say Loctite?
