Thats a massive rear tyre

1198 please, as much as I love Dukes the Panigalle is dreadful to look at, especially that rear hugger, to be fair I don't think I like anything about it aesthetically, sure it is going to be an epic bike, but it looks crap.

I might be being picky, but does it strike anyone else that the finish on that particular bike is more than a little shoddy?

Whilst I resent breaking my fuck you facebook rule for a tart's handbag of a bike, that is pretty nice.


EDIT: see what you all mean on the finish, looks quite rough in places.

I'm looking forward to getting the chance at hearing it at Oulton or Cadwell. I expect it will look awesome when it's fully race trimmed up and will sound like Satan himself is approaching...

I saw them prepping this last week at Ducati Coventry when I had my bike serviced, I had a good nose around and offered to test ride it for them but they declined!

Dont judge the bike by the finish, the bike came from factory as standard in red and looked mint, the original panels have been binned and replaced with carbon.

What is that clear tube that comes out of the tank? All the race bikes have it but road bikes don't

Id imagine its a breather, and some road bikes do have them:

ktm isnt really a road bike but you get the gist

It looks purposeful, and I quite like it.

I actually think it looks like a mix of 996 and 1098

That one does look a little rough around the edges... There's some nice pictures in this month Bike magazine, and I think it looks good!

I like the tech but the view from the front is nasty.

To me, it's not really a ducati. And the tank is too low, it looks like someone has hit the top of the bike from the sea forward as it is all hunched and low.

BUT, I think I like it
