Makes the Magnesium version look sooo last season :)
Not sure if it fits the Monster, anyone know if the 848 swingarm is the same?

the first post pictures are only showing a single one now, and its all stretched funny, here's the BST carbon fiber swingarm for 1098-1198 (and I believe a version for 848 - difference in the size of the eccentric hub / axle spot I believe)
This is an image "with hugger", and are obviously renderings.

(taken from the Motowheels post on Ducati.ms)
If I'm not mistaken, the streetfighter, hypermotard, Monster 796/1100 and the 848/1098/1198 superbikes are all different swingarms with different lengths, hub styles and shock/pivot mount locations.
Is this a better pic?
(http://www.bikehps.com/acatalog/57170_xl.jpg)
Yeah, still looks like a computer rendering from the high polish finish and perfect reflections (especially in the swingarm pivot and on the table) - show me one with smudgey fingerprints on the table and swingarm and some realistic glare from the camera flash, and we'll all know its actually being made.
How about a video?

i want one so bad.....
"most high-tech poops in town" would certainly be on the front of my house somewhere, somehow.
Now if they'll only make one to go along with their wheels on my SC. [evil]

im not convinced on that triple set. the edges look too sharp and the grain of the cf sheets are all too perfectly aesthetically aligned, much like what i think a billet triple covered in pretty sheets would look like. im no expert so feel free to prove me wrong.

It's a rendering of course, and BST are the masters of carbon fiber. The real thing probably doesn't look much different.
