Think you've got a better design eye than the fancy pants at the ducati factory?

Think you've got a better design eye than your fellow board members?

Think you've got a better paint scheme than ME?


Did I mention it's a hypermotard, and therefore needs LOTS OF F*&#ING HELP in the looks department!?


Well... Hellllp!  I'm picking up twill weave CF bodywork slowly until tax day, then going to get it painted including YOUR design suggestions, if any of them don't suck. Here are your guidelines and inspirations:

I like the predominantly red HYM. Take your primary inspiration from the bodywork of the 999r: red over CF. Not all red everywhere, though; let's show some of that mesmerizing twill weave.

I will follow on with my current direction. Post your designs or suggestions!
Following below are templates for most of the parts for you to design on.

This should be fun!

And here's what I've got so far...

I know it has a strong resemblance to Roland's hyper. So let's get over it already.

And my drinking didn't help my photochop abilities on the light cover so let's get over that too.
