  4. Just a few tweaks as I understand it, including single sided swing arm.

  5. So staying as 959 Capacity? I'd imagine it would be Euro 5 Compliant so wonder if it will loose some power or if they have managed to do the other manufacturer trick of keeping the power the same.

    It's got the same brakes, the magazines will slag them off but I thought they were okay, no issues for me when I had my 899, Likewise the suspension will be lovely. It will be a must to have a blipper as even the Supersport S has one, so imagine spec wise it's bang on. We could even wish for a nice dash like the Hyper 950 (derived from the V4 I believe).

    I think it will look great when finished, love that rear wheel design, let's hope they don't get it really wrong with pricing.
     
  6. Price rumoured to be £15 - £16k for S.
     
  7. Superleggera is next year ;)
     
  8. Skinny little forks on it..
     
  9. Good the exhaust has shrunk a bit, as Euro5 maybe it’ll even pass noise testing..

  13. Yup. :) V4SL
     
  14. MCN have got pics of the lightweight v4r also being released
     
  15. This one? I cannot begin to imagine how much this one will cost.

    Ducati need to be careful they don't just become a company selling rich man's trinkets.

  16. They aren't I don't think. They sell more scramblers than anything else (although I wonder how many Scrambler 400's they sell)

    I know "rich" is a relative term, but I think they have always been rich mans trinkets.

    Fortunately there are plenty on the secondhand market for us lesser mortals.

  18. The Multi is still the biggest seller apparently...Scrambler sales have slowed after the initial flurry.

    I'd love to see the figures of who actually buys them out right, most are being chipped away at 200 squid a month, but the ones that can buy them outright probably do as 20 odd k isn't enough of a withdrawal to disrupt a successfully working fund so no need to finance them.
     
  20. Priced me out if the market, reason why I'm considering keeping the 959.
