The trickle-down of MotoGP technology was not supposed to work that way. Bring back the trellis.

At least it might draw some of the heat from the engine  Doesn't look good though... |

I believe the purpose is just so the people at that event can see the internals of the bike. That's not the final product.

I guess you haven't followed world SBK this year...or last year...or MotoGP...Ducati isnt the dominant figure they once were. The 1199 hasn't exactly helped Ducatis racing efforts, its the prettiest for sure, but not the fastest around a track. It gets bested by the "jap" bikes we so frequently bag on lol. That being said, I would still give a testicle for an 1199R |

First, Ducati hasn't ever been dominant in MotoGP, except in Stoner's championship year. One season does not make dominance.
Second, the 1199 isn't winning in WSBK because of the intake restrictions that are placed on twins due to their extra 200 cc capacity. The new motor is designed to rev, but needs to breathe, which it can't. It has nothing to do with the chassis design.
Watch a World Superstock race where there are no such restrictions. The 1199 runs up front with the other big horsepower bikes, namely Kawasaki and BMW.
That said...the RSV4 is a better bike all around IMO. No way I'd race an 1199...that shock is just waiting to get destroyed in a minor lowside.
