Naked 1098!
 

just seen this in an email from mcn. ducati call it the "hyper fighter" and is derived from the 1098 motor. the exhaust is meant to be pat of the structural rear end. quite something though. couple of little bits look out of place, other than that quite cool.

Not bothered by this one. Like a lot of new bikes they just look sloppily designed. Too much plastic.

Re: Naked 1098!
 

too much plastic? if anything bikes are being designed with less plastic. look at the origional sportsbikes compared to todays equivelent. lot less plastic in fairing panels, and smaller rear seat units etc.

Re: Naked 1098!
 

I think it looks very similar to the Aprilia and MV fighters.

Re: Naked 1098!
 

I think it looks like a very dodgy photoshop job. Surely if Ducati was actually releasing stuff they'd want to make it look good? I reckon someone let one of the MCN monkeys loose with the crayons...

Re: Naked 1098!
 

In agreement with suzsv650 & bear on this one.....

MCN.... Well, where do I start?
