959 New 959

I'm not so sure. My missus is pretty good looking - in my opinion anyway, but if she had two warts hanging off the right hand side of her face I don't think I ever get used to it. I'd definitely have to carry out a few mods to sort it:grimacing:

 

What an ugly dog from the exhaust to the mirrors so glad I bought the 899

 

So will akra be going back to redesign the pipes?

 

not seen 1 person who says I'm going to order one

 

Jimmy im going to order one

 

I'm ordering one as well, it's new so must be better.... Plus the current one has no midrange...!

 

brave man , give me a pint of what ur drinking, :thumbsup:

 

hope u enjoy it phil, I think its got 7% more mid range ? nothing a good shite in the morning would equal,,

 

well that's 2 ordered bet ducati can sleep at night now,

 

I think quite a few have their names down for one. Let's face it if you stick some underbelly akras on it. It will look fine. Fine lines restored.

 

And it looks to be 7kg heavier which will help with grip....

 

your prob right discos, but if you've got to go full system not really a good start to have to chuck £2500 at it,

 

There are departures from styling trends that we all become used to but the 959 for the euro market isn't a departure, it's a compromise. Otherwise they'd be selling it in the same guise globally.

 

:confuse:I would have loved to see the designers face when he walked into the bosses office and said heres my drawings boss, :Banghead:

 

Think I will be firmly sticking with my 1098S!

 

There is still always the possibility its been designed to make the bike work better with more torque.

 

Totally agree...

 

plus new lower fairings! to be honest, everyone fits aftermarket cans anyway, so who cares if the side exhaust looks wank.

 

and further more, is it any different to sticking shitewank black plastic on a 20k bike and expect you to shell out a further 2K on carbon? I fear not.

 

America version is showing on there site as 171kg with underbelly exhausts
