| Yep the monster is Ducatis bread and butter, get that wrong and Ducati will be in trouble. S4RS yes please.
Not too keen on the idea of 1200cc, sounds like a motor out of some milwaukee iron.
With me smug face on I think I've got the best of both worlds with me 998, 999cc mota, 916/996/998 looks, glacial depreciation.
Ducati built their image on racing bikes that were also style icons. Sure they are still winning races but the style is no longer to everyones taste.
In some sense Ducati are in a similar position to their Cousins down the road at Ferrari, the current Ferraris are much better to drive than their predecessors but the looks with all the air inlets (a la 360/430) are not the design classics in the aethestic sense that their predecessors are.
