Just for interest id like to know why Ducati never went down the Alloy Frame road. ala R1
I know its really a tradition of Ducati to have the tubular type frame but is this the only reason. im sure others have thought the same as me.

Pierobon make the frames for the factory bikes,in italy,they do,also offer an alloy version,clearley there are fundamental reasons as to why the factory don't use them,as they work very closely together !
