Ooohh. I think it looks dreamy from the front. :roll: :roll:

Love the action pics. Great looking bike. Bring on the '08 season. Shame that Ducati riders see fit to constantly **** it at this stage. There is no jap bike available that comes close in the looks dept.

Nah...that's convinced me. Had my doubts from the MCN spy shots and todays front page, but the action shots have convinced me...it's feckin gorgeous!!!

Looks awesome in that last picture, lifting the front wheel... those mirrors look a bit odd though...

Can't wait to see one for real... when is it arriving at dealers??

Whats with the big weld on the swinging arm then ?

duck 08-Nov-2006 20:29

butt ugly...i'm sorry, i don't see nothing new, really dissapointed. looks cbr-ish at the front, mv-ish at the back and the exhausts look more of an after thought than on the 999 :(

i hope it looks better in the flesh

On Ducati.com its saying 171kgs and 160bhp which tranlates to what in real money

And talking of money how much ????????


Having said that it works for me and if its 11 grand then maybe just got to do the fugures ,but 12 grand not so sure :(


Heres hoping :)

Internal bracing I should imagine

Hmmm,.........
Nice pics of the 'S' in MCN and Ducati.com,.....overall I like the look of the new bike,however there are some bits I'm not sure of.For instance,whats with that ugly heat sheild on the r/h side of the bike,.....those exhausts dont look quite right either,.....and the mirrors,.....
I can see elements of the 916 shape bikes there and a fair bit of 999,(not a bad thing!) so its kinda growing on me.Just gonna have to wait untill Milan or when they arrive at my local dealer to crawl all over it for a better look.

Such a shame they're not doing it in yellow or we could throw that into the mix as well....!
