The new stealth model from Ducati:
Featuring Australia's next World Champeen (If Chris Vermuelen doesn't beat him to it, which seems likely, given his times in off-season testing.) Note his angle of lean, then look where his back tyre is, he's having a bit of a go. And yes, I realise that the picture has been edited for effect, but not very much.
Also, funny what a difference a colour makes, isn't it?
This photo is of the GP7 in stealth trim, so that camera waves bounce off it and they can do their testing in secret.

This photo is of the GP6 in full dress regalia. Basically the same as far as bodywork goes (Which is to say "Far and away the sexiest of the current crop of racing bikes." Like 'em or loathe 'em, Ducati always brings the pretty. Except the Paso. The Paso is the ugly one who stays at home baking cookies.) The GP6 looks far more angular and New Millennium than the GP7, which is almost John Player Norton-ish by comparison. I'd still ride it, though.
Probably only to about halfway around the first corner, but it would be good fun trying.
As an added extra bonus limited edition feature, here is the dash of the GP6.

wooo flashy :-)
Nice... but I prefer mine made by Nipponese or German engineers... Those 'Talians always have bad assembly days and I always get the made on friday one...
I used to work for a firm that also did auto electrical work and they had a sign... "We repair all makes of veichle, except Italian."
Bloke pitched up in his Lambo one day and the workshop manager took pity and relented... Robbie the chief auto'lectrician took one look at the 4" loom of wires and said... "You want to be in Cape Town when?" He left 5 minutes later still with no wipers working.
Hey Dirk - why no love for the Paso? I have a bit of a soft spot for them, especially since they look a little like a prototype of the GOOF. The stock exhausts look crap though - they need nice pipes to look the biz. Mind you, I also love the old slab-side gixxers, so perhaps I shouldn't be talkin bike aesthetics...
I liked it more in black, it's a goth bike.
