Still think it's a photoshop?

Here are another two pictures. If it is a cut and paste job someone has gone to a lot of effort to do so.

How long now ?


I guess the KTM design team have only got a ruler to work with

What was that kids origami program from many many years ago? you start with a flat sheet of paper and end up with a boat, hat, or motorbike.

Trumpet went that way for a short while designwise, Muz are another design team who are keen on the use of the ruler?

Far prefer to see a bike for real rather than just side on piccies.

Still hoping a sedici is gonna become available at the right price, if not I'm sticking with 2002

Hmmm. Looks like the original 916 with a fat 4rse and a facelift. Kinda how the 916 would look if it was human and "aged".

Tim Macabee made a big point of the technical spec of the bike at the DSC Dinner Dance, so I'm assuming Ducati will be pinning their hopes on that rather than the looks. They did that with the 999 though and look where that got them...

Works for me, might even be worth flogging the RS to get one. After all it's reputed to have at least 10bhp more as a standard road bike, and no silly service intervals!

Didn't take them long did it!

I do like that D16RR style nose but other than that I'm not keen.
