Looks like a panigale. I wouldnt say poor show as such re design, but you think theyd have tried to make it more unique considering the new engine etc. Shows you how good the 1199 looks. Theyre calling it the " Ducati V4 Duplicare "
The Pangiale is widely and well received as a stunning motorcycle by virtually everyone including non biking people. I guess Ducati don't want to mess up a winning design by taking a risk. When the 999 first came out alot of people were quite out spoken about it being a poor design in their opinion (personally I like it) I guess one bitten twice shy. You will never see Porsche totally reinvent the look of a 911 it's always an evolution of the classic design. I guess as a designer if you get it right first time there a few places you can go in the future.
1299 has 205 bhp and 101 lbft of torque. New V4 has 207bhp and 88 lbft of torque according to mcn article. I won't be rushing out to px the 1299 any time soon
