From motorcyclenews.com as to what Ducati has in store for the Milan show:

Ducati will unveil its replacement for its Monster S4R – with a testastretta engine. And the Italian firm is expected to unveil a spectacular new concept bike, too.

I heard someone saying it was a supermoto mts, interesting idea, no connection to facts however.

Looks like a new Brutale 910-R coming too.
HP wars!

Am I the only one not trilled about the new S4s? I'm guessing it's not going to look all that different.
More power, sweeter brakes, better than the current one yes, but nothing WOW as I see it.

More excited to see what new prototype they'll have- please no more retro Mike/Paul bikes, something ultamodern and cool and NOT designed by TP.

Also can't wait to see what Bimota's new bike is.

Good call on the GP production bike. I remember last year there being some hipe about the production engine being finalized. Seems about time for the actual bike to be unvailed. If nothing else a preproduction version that they can parade around like the sport classics.

Think Supermoto.....

monarc

so much of aprilia's stuff has been supermoto for 2006 i'm seeing a trend.... plus ducati built a pretty decent road only supermoto with the multi-620. stands to reason we could see a fairing less 620 city-moto in the future....

(only hear-say and conjecture there, those are kinds of evidence)

Supermoto! Is it strange that DNA signed Ben Bostrom. Didn't he win the first supermoto title. I smell a conspiracy.

derby

the first supermoto, er, superbikers title was won in the early 80s.

also, bostrom only showed up to the final round and the championship was a single race.
