I went into Ducati London South (Croydon) and asked about the radial front end. They said that only one exists and that is the show bike which is in the brochure. They also said it retails at £5,500 - is that right
They are building one for a customer - the Beast - which they showed me as work in progress - carbon tanks, powder coated swingarm, dymag carbon wheels, ohlins front and rear, slipper clutch and trick clutch cover (the one that natty fancies) and a custom ohlins / radial brakes front end. I think they had estimated it at £25,000 so far
..... and it's not finished yet.
I am trying to get a front end direct from the factory so I'm hoping they might have a few unused ohlins bits and bobs lying around that they want rid of. :P
