This is sort of neat:

Anyone else happen to see these images? It was supposed to be a first in a series of "Moto Art" projects called Color Therapy showing how easily owners could mod their Monsters.

I saw a little book at the dealer with a Monster outline on clear plastic and different solid colors that could be flipped behind it. Most of them looked pretty good. I'd be amazed if parts are actually available in all those colors though.

Lavender? Really?

I could definitely see the orange, yellow, silver, and blue selling well, and maybe some of the metallics. The green for whatever reason doesn't do much for me.

It might be good to help dispel the "all Ducatis are red" trope (says the guy with a red Ducati).

Actually, that'd be anyone with access to the search button and an extra 10 seconds.  <zing>  [laugh]

That whole marketing campaign is the natural (de)evolution of DucTape's bike.

OOOOHHH  I've actually never seen that before!!!  As the proud owner of a turquoise monster (see avy), I'm all for rainbow ducs!  (But no orange or neons please...  for some reason they just look bad. The cool colors and richer darker colors look best, IMHO.)
