Talking The new chassis.....and engine for the 1199

Ducati's range of bikes. The 799 is on its way and out goes steel trellis for its sports bike range. The 1199 and 799 engines are designed for a mono chassis not steel trellis. But the Streetfigher, Monster, Multi, Super and Diavel all use a steel trellis.
So are Ducati then going to design a new 1199 and 799 engines to fits steel trellis as the new engine drops dowen the range which, following convention it will. Are they going to drop steel trellis through the range, or have 2 distinct types of chassis and engine config. It seems the inter operability of components just took a serious turn for the worse with the new 1199, though its a great bike.

Interested to hear anyone who knows what they intend to do as they must have had the thought.
