Damn ductape,

Decent pic of the front,

Let go of your 999 while you still can

 

[zarn02]

aaaannnnd.... i need a towel.

Still dry clutch, I think,

Looks that way

Pro'lly a euro version though

US model is going to be wet?

 

[buymeabmw]

I'm not impressed. That paint job looks pretty crappy.

 

[Khalid]

i might be mistaken, but that tail section reminds me of MV's

for a split second I was like WTF, then I read the rest and giggled like a little school girl

I thought the exact same thing...

you're kidding right?

The bike is masked until full production.
In Cali you will always see the concept cars masked with Michigan plates.

It looks wrinkled

I would think it'd be the other way around. Europe is more stringent with the noise laws.

 

[Zltful]

Just me....but not impressed. Looks like a too late attempt at a Tamburini design. Even the exhaust kind of suggests MV F4 with 2 pipes instead of 4.

Don't get me wrong. I love the 999 for what it is. But I am a 9*6 faithful and have a hard time believing that Ducati is going to be able to match and surpass that design with anyone short of Tamburini himself.

JMHO

[hiero]

hmm, considering it's masked off with some kind of material and a bunch of tape, I think that's accurate

 

[silentbob]

Isn't the new SBK 1198 and the Multi 1098?

 

[spolic]

Looks like a Duc in MV plastic and tank.

 

[MonsterDuc]

I'm with spolic.

Duc hard parts, MV plastic & tank.
