[Ducati] 1.2 litre bike coming soon

[Joe M Ribaudo]

I'm actually suspicious of the SS Swing-arm...Causes me to wonder if this
is *really* the next Ducati Superbike.  Do you all think Ducati will go
back to a SSS?... I thought the race teams insisted on double-sided
swingarms(?)

Regards,
Joe

They still need to clean up the exposed under-tail exhausts.  Too much
of the cannisters are visible, which reflects the "butt ugly" look of
the current 749/999 model. All in all, it looks like Ducati is getting
back on track with their true heritage.  The single-sided swingarm, tank
shape, and upper fairing look similar to the original 916, which is
where Ducati should have evolved the original design.  It appears Ducati
is going back to their past, to move into the future.
