i like the grey one too. red frame = awesome

the only problem is that a ducati MUST be red. Its like a ferrari. i would never buy a green ferrari. red is the way to go

I think the grey one would have looked even better with a black frame... like the multistrada. Handle bar seems to be higher than on 2011 models and that's what my DD told me in early september. They should also feature a new swingarm...

So far, I think all the color combinations have been pretty good. That one yellow F1098S (dealer painted, I believe) that someone here bought also looked great. Ducati should have produced that combo. Personally, I'm not fond of flat finishes...plastics, wheels, or frames. A good gloss clear coat fixes that, though.

I'm glad I have the original. I still like it the best.

i've always loved the senna colors... the dark grey and red combo just works for me

would have been even hotter if they made the wheels red too like the 848evo

custom color? I don't see any mention of any gray SF on Ducati.com website. The black 2012 SFs has a black frame, and the red 2012 SFs has a red frame.
