Why did they mount the rectifier to the lower head? Because there is no room under the seat, or to lower the center of gravity?

What seat? All I see is a bit of foam to protect the plastic from those pesky leathers riders wear...

It's like they've got a vendetta against clean lines and smooth transitions...  The more I see out of Radical Ducati, the less I like them.   Tongue

The Radical Ducati bikes are getting sharper and messier than their earlier bikes.  I liked this one from a few years back.

The bronze'ish paint and all the flailing, shiny bits make it look steampunk, to be ridden wearing a derby.

I like these bikes because they are all about function.
