Interesting - maybe this will be a competitor for the Hypermotard? A lot of the motard riders I know reckon that the Hypermotard will be too heavy with the 1000cc engine in it, so it just won't cut it against the KTM et al offerings.

Could Ducati introduce a 695 Hypermotard? It may be cheaper but I doubt that the weight will be reduced significantly and for it to have enough power to be the class leader?
