I wonder if the wheels are magnesium? Other than that, I’m struggling to explain the (rumoured) £32k price tag.
Well, that’s disappointing. But I’ll wait for the proper pictures/ specs and price before I decide. At the moment, my money is safe.
I don’t think it’s a Streetfighter engine, I think it’s the engine case that comes with the dry clutch.
That said, I’m second guessing myself. Could be the SF engine supplied with the case ready for the dry clutch.
The bike in the photo does not have the deep sump of the SF engine but does have the same clutch cover which says to me it could be fitted with a dry clutch.
No pannier mounting points either it would appear. Edit- scrub that, it looks like they are still there.

I stopped reading as soon as it said "no technical info yet". The Streetfighter SP2 engine is 208bhp, so why do they think this will be 180bhp? A regular V4 with the full system is 179bhp (according to Ducati's website), so 1bhp more doesn't sound right to me.
The wheels in the picture posted are the current PP forged aluminium, same style as the Hyper 950SP and Monster 1200R. Andy
I'm new to the Ducati party. Can someone explain the difference between the Pani, SF and Multi V4 engine please? I believe the Multi has a different valve train to enable longer service intervals.
In essence, all 3 engines are the ‘same’ and all no longer use the desmo valve train. Pani comes in 999cc (R) and 1103cc, SF is 1103cc and Multi is 1158cc. All have a different level of tune. Andy Except, as I’ve been corrected, only the Multistrada is not Desmo ….. and I had a Panigale V4
