I think the 749R was the best looking 749/999 and the only one I would want to own 04 model carbon.

With the 1098, i'm already interested with the base model. You wait til we see a full WSBK model on the grid.

It is growing on me but i do think this new model should have been the design that replaced the 748/998 three or so years ago (sorry 999 owners) and then the designers could have really gone to town with the evolution of the 748/998 replacement now .

I know bikes are different things to different people but i truely beleive that the MV F4 was the real design upgrade to the 916 by Tamburini

To be fair, if you squint this is the best shot I have seen so far of the 1098, it looks the most like a Ducati to me !
