Maybe it'll look better in the flesh but it just looks like a right mix-mash

I like the look of the front and side profile a lot, but don't like the twin underseat exhaust. It looks a bit dated to me.

SlowLearner · 07-Nov-2006, 17:22

or does it look rubbish.

I can't believe that Ducati would release something that looks so average, so am clinging to the hope that the real thing is being hidden away until show time and will blow us all away .......

PS I was stuned by the 999 when it came out, didnt like it but was stunned !
PPS Now i love my T9s :-)

There won't be so many good deals on 999s now if that is a true pic.....

Even with our Ducati Lurve goggles on, you have got to say that that looks like it was designed by a man going through a bitter divorce ....

Hope it looks better in the flesh as it looks like a cast off from the triumph 675 drawings ....

Looks good from this angle;

Rattler · 07-Nov-2006, 19:05

If its the real deal - the back end looks a lot better from the side than the front, but at least they've cleaned up the numberplate area - it looked a mess on the 999s. One of the reasons that the race 999s look much better IMO.
