Scooter

Something sporty as an alternative to Vespa/ Piaggio would be cool but why 100hp, 850cc with 17" wheels? That sounds like that Aprilia Mana and you never see those.
They do like controversy these days.

I live in the country so a scooter is of no use for me, however if lived in a big city I would consider it. I think that looks hot, for a scooter I mean

I'd buy one if it were along the lines of a Rukus. The picture from the article looks like they are puting way too much effort into making it cool.

our worst fears have come true.

from Diavel to this... with KTM in the game, Ducati is next.

I predict (not too tough to predict this)... next year's EICMA show the new ducati scooter will be presented, and to temper our disgust, so will the new superbike.

F- this, no, really, f- this.

PS. if you're wondering, the scooter will have the 1000cc 98hp engine from the superduke.
