GET REAL!  The stroke on the DS1000 is the maximum that the current 2V engine can handle @ 71.5mm.  There's NO way to get a 1400cc Duc 2V engine with the current cases.  Period.

It would require a completely scratch built engine and I just don't see them doing anything that large of scale just to build a cruiser.  Roll Eyes

 Wow, I didn't realize that the Testastretta was a 2V.

Japanese don't make original designs

(can't find a pic of the japanese sailors from the film 1949 trying to stuff a Wurlitzer radio into the hatch...)

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

"Ducati Vyper to Rival VMax and V-Rod"

They don't need 1400cc to do that, I guess if Ducati wanted to rival the VMax and V-Rod they could stuff some lead weights under the seat of the Street Fighter

Brits don't make dirtbikes. 

Germans don't make bikes without heated grips

Japanese don't make . . . uh . . . er . . . uh . . . mmm  . . . uh . . . make the beast with two backs, ran out of wit.

pssssst  EVERYONE......

A DS1000 and the Testa cases are nearly the same damn cases (minus a few small changes which have nothing to do with the crankshaft). 

The crankshaft to timing lay-shaft dimension defines maximum crankshaft stroke on a Ducati V-twin. 

And it's frakkin' completely maxxed out with the 71.5mm crankshaft which resides in the DS1000 and DS1100 engines.

So what about the 1198?

106mm bore x 67.9 stroke.

If you were to put a DS1000 crank into it, the 1198 would yield a 1262cc engine.  A touch shy of 1400cc's.  They would need to put 112mm cylinders on it & a DS1000 crank in it to net a 1408cc twin.   Roll Eyes

This entire thread is just another wild photo-chop by some motorcycle magazine looking for the next 'WOW!' bike from Ducati is all.  Look at that 'New SuperSport' that was supposedly coming out a couple months ago?!?  How about that 'New Pantah' bull-shit in another current thread...

I wouldn't be surprised if Ducati makes a cruiser again.  I would be surprised if it is a 4 valve and looks sorta like a raked out Streetfighter.  They should probably sub contract the design to  Duck-Stew and Motocreations.
