I was about to post that after looking on MCN. It looks like a bloody japanese man with slitty downward drooping eyes that had a nose job which fell off with dumbo ears. God, that's one ugly mofo. Somebody should have aborted it before it even got conceived!

looks like a deformed 1098. I guess they thought the old mito with 916 styling was good so lets try it with the new model. Rolling Eyes

Looks a bit like the old Cagiva 500 GP bike with that intake.

Quite like it myself - something different certainly.

They've obviously spent more than five minutes designing that, not so much can be said for that 2008 Blade.

look like the Desmo RR, I like it. But then I have a Speed Four so I must have a thing for Fugly bikes.

Spy pics my arse... That's a very, very old pic that's been doing the rounds amongst Mito fans for a while. I first saw it more than a year ago - It's a road version of the 2006 SP 525 racing Mito.

I've seen so many pics of the 'new' Mito that I will not believe it until I see one in a showroom. Rolling Eyes

I think it looks great, though why didn't they just make a carbon copy of the 1098 in the same way the previous Mito was to the 916? I admire the vague originality but it would have been a complete winner with 1098 styling...

Hi

Prefer the older 916 style Mito, which I think is probably one of the best looking bikes ever made (looks far better and more in proportion than the actual 916). However it isn't bad

At the time the 916 style Mito came out Ducati were owned by Cagiva, and both bikes were designed by the same person. Now they are seperate companies and the 916 designed still works for Cagiva.

All the best

I'm amazed how many people seem to miss that fact.

Massimo Tamburini is a bloody genius.

I like it, it was about time Cagiva changed the shape of their Mito anyway...
