:niceone:personally i would lose the sheep trough spoiler and would imagine losing the hideous mirrors would help,why do they do that shit when its so easy..bar end mirrors.:doh:

[Forest]

Those wing mirrors are truly vile.

V-twin, 1099cc, 155bhp, 87.5Ib/ft :niceone:

[piston broke]

agreed,bar ends needed.
those cans look like they will sound great

[short-circuit]

I read in in Triumph Speed Triple forum that Ducati are releasing a naked 1098 - maybe this it it?

[piston broke]

is it a photoshop or the real thang?

[short-circuit]

OK so this is it...WOW

[breakaway]

Is it just me or do the brake / clutch fluid reservoirs stick out like dogs balls?

[AllanB]

Turn the lights on!

[pritch]

There'd need to be a radiator protector set available before you took it out on our roads.

[idb]

I agree that all the shit on 'bars looks crap but the rest of it is horniness of the highest order!!

I love the opening video. Ducati shot the bike with the wing mirrors taken off :lol:

[idb]

I'm salivating!!!

If I can just get a buyer for my Grandmother...

[mnkyboy]

The wantometer just exploded

I somehow don't think the CFO will authorise that though. She'd hit the roof if I came home with one....then want to go for a ride

I want one real bad.

[ManDownUnder]

It's got that surprised "WHAT THE FUCK" look happening like one of the Mormon Few decided to slip it one up the tailpipe.

Otherwise - quite nice.

[Scouse]

Those wing mirrors are truly vile.Looks like they have gone from the Monster to the Monstrosity

[Forest]

The wing mirrors really remind me of Frank in the film Donnie Darko (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donnie_Darko).

[Her_C4]

Wow!!!

Although I agree with the comments about the mirrors - (you would want to replace those pretty quickly) - I'd definitely be keen:yes: :scooter: :sunny:

Oh yes..... :gob:

Thanks for the link.

That new 1198 looks amazing. Especially if it really does have similar performance to the 1098R.

The 1098 is dead! Long live the 1198!

[et al]

The new Streetfighter has been voted as the best-looking bike at the 2008 Milan show. Awesome! Can't wait to see one in the flesh.

Unveiled at the EICMA show in Milan in November 2008, the smoking-hot Ducati Streetfighter is slated to go on sale in the US by May this year. Priced at $18,995, the Streetfighter S will go on sale in May, while the base model Streetfighter, priced at $14,995, will probably be available by August.

While essentially based on the Ducati 1098, many of the Streetfighter’s bits and pieces are unique to the bike – it has a new subframe, more relaxed steering (25.6 degree rake, compared to 24.5 degrees on the 1098), a swingarm that’s 35mm longer than the 1098’s item, a redesigned cooling system to reduce the width of the bike and a new, fully digital dashboard.

The Streetfighter S is fitted with proper, high-spec bits – 43mm Öhlins USD fork, fully adjustable Öhlins monoshock, five-spoke forged alloy wheels from Marchesini, the Ducati Data Analysis system and Ducati Traction Control (DTC). The Streetfighter S will be available in two colours – red and black – with bronze-painted chassis and wheels, while the base model Streetfighter will come in red and white, with black wheels and dark-grey wheels.

Next week, Ducati will be organising test rides of the Streetfighter for some motorcycle magazines, in Malaga, Spain. In the meanwhile, here are technical specifications of the bike:

No no no. It's like when they brought out the 999, disappointing..

[elevenhundred]

Is the model name Streetfighter? If so thats pretty lame.
Nice bike though

[Devil]

Whats disappointing about it?

[gatch]

front half looks like its straight from a superduke except red, the tail from a 2000 r1, the twin exhausts like this are poo, I'm no expert, this is just my opinion, I think it's disappointing.

[LBD]

I saw them in the flesh at the show, first impression was very techy...but not to bad looking. Since November they have grown on me and I am starting to wonder if.....

Check out my Milan gallery where you can see more pics of it....

:Oops:

[Grant`]

This bike is really starting to grow on me, Could be the next upgrade i look at when I am in the market for a new bike!

That is my problem with it - how can you have a factory streetfighter? Isn't the definition of a streetfighter a factory bike that someone modifies themselves into something else? Hence my calling it the 'Ducati Oxymoron':

Click here for the review of the 2009 London Motorcycle Show where I saw it (http://www.bobpickett.co.uk/bkit/mcnshow09.htm)

Bike does look good - shame I couldn't get a better photo at the time.
