Really like it. However, what is the black tube-like thing between the swingarm and the seat?

Excuse my ignorance, but has the engine rolled back a couple of degrees? The vertical head no longer looks vertical.

This bike is unreal. It makes everything else look prehistoric, heavy, and slow.
I hope the electronics are reliable. It's like the engineers at Ducati came up with 100 suggestions and management said "What the hell. Do ALL of it!"
I can't wait to see it in person.

If I recall, the idea was more to allow for a shorter wheelbase.

Website says it's for weight distribution.
52% up front, 48% out back without the rider. Claims a more even, perfect, distribution with the rider on board.

I love the Tricolore!
At last a dashboard that can be read. Diggin' the new wheel designs.
But....................
Valve adjustment on the vertical cylinder is going to be a pregnant dog pards.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.
