[He Man]

if the rotors were blacked out too, id think shervinRRR had something to do with it!

I thought the 848 Dark looked good.  The Stealth is amazing!

I think I need a napkin.  And some clean pants.

I might just have to buy that, it's awesome.

I think with a red frame it would look even better though!

[Pedro-bot]

Nice. 
So is this meant to satisfy the requests for an "s" model? 

[Raux]

yeah noticed they are starting to use the 'evo' term on the upgraded bikes. wonder if we're seeing the end of the 's' designation.

Funny thing is that according to the link above the price for this 2011 model is unchanged from the standard 2010 models. 

[KrakHor9]

Yes but how much?? 

[Raux]

ahhhhhhhhhh oh no

this is the new standard... damn no more white! errrrr

and in that case, the 'evo' term sucks IMO.

no reason to add it to models if it's the standard model.

I don't think so. I think it is referring to the next generation of motors which still have the same displacement. The HMT was the first to use the evo name, and you can currently get an 1100evo, and an 1100evo SP (the S model).

There still isn't an 848 S model.

I just finished!

[Raux]

the names are starting to get convoluted.

the simple
number
number + S
number + R

were cool simple and meant something
now it's EVO
EVO SP (yes i know SP has been used as well as RS and SL)

well an 848 SL would be cool
but EVO.. yuck
so what it has a new gen engine.. it's a new year also. it's expected to be new

BLAH Ducati. bad call on the new naming...
