  1. It does amaze me that people buy these, along with MG/Volvo/Polestar electric cars, because of the name... it's not it's because they are cheap.

    Not to mention fuelling Chinese coal burning power stations.
     
  2. Ducati 125's, covered in stickers, with the baffles removed for 17yearolds?

  3. That isn’t really an argument. Much if what the West buys is already made in China or other parts of Asia. It’s us who is the problem there with unsustainable consumerism.
    China spends more on renewable energy investment per year than the Rest of the world put together.
    It’s the UK trying to switch their coal fired energy back on.

  4. Nothing wrong with a Ducati single. I love my little 250 Desmo.

  5. They’ve resurrected the Cagiva Elephant so maybe it’s a Cagiva Mito ;)

  7. Totally... that what I was trying to say... most of the problem is 'the west' buying loads of crap that is cheaper than if the crap was made in 'the west'.

    And China may well be investing more as a total in renewable energy but that doesn't mean they aren't still investing in coal.

  9. With the way things are going with speed cameras, traffic, diabolical condition of the roads..... I could see me on a bike that gives smiles and giggles on the back roads.

    I could be up for a single

  11. The bike released next week will probably be the best and most fun one Ducati announce this year.
     
  12. So novel they had to invent a new verb to suit

  17. Same here, I love the power delivery and sound of the Ducati twins. For a Supermoto/ Enduro I do understand the choice for mono engines because they have to be as light weight as possible.
     
  18. I'm homing its a resurrection, essentially a SuperMono II!
     
  19. Dreams of a SUPERMONO for 2024.... I would totally love a light trellis framed stomper like this in some sexy bodywork... amazing

  20. If its Supermotard, mewww.... If Ducati sells the motor as a crate engine and grab a Cagiva Mito for an engine transplant. That would be interesting :)
