the panigale looks much better like this:

(more monsteresque')

isss only a concept... but I figured appropriate for the DMF

Except for the chicken feet wheels...

Yeah I agree.....looks much better faired.

couple of things.

first, get rid of the side pods covering the AL frame(less) front (such a stupid name - frameless)

second, go ahead and keep the same headlight attached to the front, just with a mini surround.

put a normal 2-seat seat on it.

put bars on it

put 5 spoke OZs

put a lighter looking front fender
THEN I'd like it.

I'd buy that if you can add a descen headlight.

I'd settle for an s4rs with a 1198 engine in it.

A Monster without the trellis is like breasts without nipples. Still pretty, but rather incomplete.

I was going to post a photo of boobs with nipples photoshopped out, and a picture of a really fat (lipid enriched for all you Politically correct people) individual just to demonstrate that boobs without nipples are not just fat. Then I read the forum rules....

With that said, I really enjoy the trellis frame and dry clutch. I know with advancement of R&D, old designs must go extinct as new technology replaces them. I'm going to find me a 999 for next season's track sessions.

that looks a little like the honda NAS, which unfortuinately was never built.  That bike would cause me to sell my duc in a heartbeat.
