Lets make a wish list and send it to ducati
Complete redesign, I like certain parts of the new design, but that front cowl has to go. Its too much of an aquired taste, and whichever way you look at it, the 916 series didnt need any form of aquiring, everybody loved it and had posters of it on their wall.
Bring back the single sided swingarm.
... and I reckon its about time they defected to an IL4. Reliability, power, maintenance. Surely thats the future for the supersports range. Woudnt say dump the Vtwins, they just need their supersports machines to be more on par with the latest UJM stuff to be anywhere near competitive both on and off the track.
Yes it has less character, but Ill swap ya for another 30-40 bhp, lower maintenance costs and reliability.
Imagine... ducati looks and handling on a reliable, affordable engine.... cor blimey gov'ner
