not quite the power of the H2, but ducati announced a new bike this week
had heard rumblings about it for quite a while, and have to admit, looks better than i thought it would

its not for me, but its supposed to be fairly cheap .. less than 7k apparently
suspect it will sell well... if it works
I don't like the looks at all.
didn't like from ^ piccy.
watched vid and now want one. especially if it comes with the girl in the white t-shirt....
Watched the video, still don't like the looks, the girl in the white tee shirt however :azn:
I like the one with the wire wheels...great 2nd bike.
Not completely sold on the looks but could be a bit of fun for pottering around on if your not in a hurry, 2nd bike fodder for me too :)
Triumph scrambler looks much, much better
The exhaust is wrong on the Ducati
will there be a high end supalagera version?
I'd have one of those instead of that daft H2 thing any day.
I quite like it

massive + 1. The Triumph is an absolute hoot to ride too (obviously no idea how much fun the Duc is to ride!).
That looks a lot of fun, I'd have one to pootle around and take the missus out on the back.

I'll not be trading my Scrambler for that.
Between that and the trumpet, no contest! Though I'd rather have the harley flat tracker personally!

Only for those who can spell it ;)
:rofl: :moto:
I have taken several deposits and placed orders with the factory already. Starting at £6895 its going to be a winner.
Will take a proper look on Monday too see if real life does it justice.

meh ya knew what I was bloody on about though didn't ya!! :tongue:
Nope, still nothing.
Although the bike does look like the bastard child of a ducati and a harley, so I suspect you might be buying one to go with the 'luke warm' hatchback.
Not bloody likely, really dislike the look of the scrambler they was getting abit far off track with the hypermotard (which happened to be fantastic) but I just think its not a true ducati so no thank you...
Ok so what makes it not a 'true' ducati?
And to be fair i don't rate the bike either but if they had made it more akin to the triumph, then we would be calling them a copy cat.
If I wanted an Italian scrambler styled bike then I'd buy the Borile.
you debadge most ducatis, you know what it is , this I wouldn't have a clue , in my opinion it doesn't suit the brand
I like that.

They are taking the brand where the market dictates.

didn't like the front on shot that I saw but side on, in the right colours it doesn't look half bad - certainly fits with that genre (moto guzzi V7, triumph bonneville / scrambler etc). Still, looks wise don't think it's a patch on the trumpets.
