Ducati plans GP-style frameless superbikes
Ducati is planning a ‘frameless’ future for its road-going superbikes – with the firm set to bet the farm on an aluminium version of its GP10’s revolutionary carbon design, MCN can reveal.
A new patent application purports to protect the composite semi-monococque design – which bolts headstock to engine via a structural airbox rather than a frame – used on its race-winning GP9 and new GP10 MotoGP bikes. But multiple references to road-going and production concerns irrelevant to MotoGP confirm it has a broader brief – to safeguard the transition to road bikes of a technology Ducati clearly feels represents sports bikes’ next great leap.
As much as I love the trellis frame, this is exciting. Hope it's true.

Anything that is different than a DeltaBox-type frame is worth consideration, IMHO!
