not for me I'm afraid. That would lower the tone in my garage.

I like the way they've made certain bits such as the mirrors, indicators, a decent tea tray (or none for blokes with jewish blood), which Monster owners tend to upgrade as standard.
Not too sure about the cans though, but they would have to be changed immediately in any event. Any idea when it will be in the shops to take a closer gander?

Not for me. I think they've changed the styling too much.
Ba humbug. |

At first glance that looks very nice. Decent brakes as standard at last. I like the back end very much. It's still recongisable as a Monster but also very up-to-date. They seem to have found some extra BHP too for that extra 1cc.
I think that is going to seel very well, especially if they get the price around the £5k mark. |

Does look interesting and different but still a monster, maybe what ducati needs to have a better chance on taking on the 600 cc market.

I really like that, now if the 1100 looks like that I'll be avin one. I was in Ducati Ayesbury today pestering for info and release dates but alas they know nothing yet. They've got my number though as the head honcho is in Milan right now waiting by the Ducati stand |

Can you lot all stop looking at it, the page is taking forever to load and I just can't pedal any faster. In fact the whole world must be looking but I did get a glimpse of the back end and that looked very tasty. Ah I'm there and at first glance, I like and if they do a bigger one it may be worth an upgrade in two and a half years time, by which time any niggles will hopefully have been ironed out!!!
They have kept it very much a monster, funny seeing the shock on an angle and I love the tank and the back end but I will have no where to put my spex!! Well done Ducati, this monster owner likes it I guess it will be at the NEC? |
