So - is this it?

Pics look genuine - as though they've been scanned from an already printed brochure or press release - someone's had to produce exhibition panels and press packs in advance for next week's launch I expect - so probably a genuine leak.

I think it all looks good. I just hope the tank holds more than the 999 and us big blokes can fit it.

Dual headlights - I hope they're better than the 748/916 ones, especially on dip.

They've gone back to 916-ish curves rather than follow the chiselled 999 look (the KTM has already taken that to the next stage - yum).

On the whole, it will be enough to make me enquire on PX value on a 2002 999bp (sweet FA I expect), but don't get me wrong, I like the 999 and it was actually a braver move to launch it than to launch the 1098.

Here's looking forward to next Tuesday....
