Whoa - that looks like final prototype testing doesn't it? Must be the genuine article as it's very similar to the bike pictured in Italy we've seen before. Radial Brembos, Marchesini rear wheel, trellis frame, single swinger, standard issue Ducati clutch cover etc. That'll be the 1098 then.

It's tiny isn't it? Looks like the size of our RS250! If it really is that miniscule I'd be tempted to get one. However, on looks alone I'm not that impressed.

I reckon they use the biggest bloke they can find to test to see what it goes like with weight. Did it to the Hypermotard too.
