Spy shots of 1098 at the factory !!

[Rod]

Here is the link to the Ducati MS forum. A very lucky photographer seemingly managed to capture these pictures on film while Ducati's guard was down. Whether or not, given the lengths they have gone to to keep the new machine under wraps, the bike you see is another test mule in red herring bodywork remains to be seen. You be the judge. I think the front end looks vaguely like an Aprilia RS250, but it's not the the clearest of views. What does everyone else think?

Hmmmm. Hard to tell from the pics, but the the rear end is way differnt to the D16RR so I doubt it's a test mule for that bike. Must be the 1098?

I'm not keen on the pointy rear end...

Is that a blade of grass in the foreground or a non-trellis frame on the bike ?

Gettin really excited about the new bike now.:D

I think it'll be a dodgy 916 re-hash, rather than a new design :(
