Good idea  [thumbsup]

I kept looking for a 848 or 1098 picture I can pull apart but that one works pretty well.

I Like this one the best so far.

I love the "eyes" on a 1098, and this is similar.

since we are all photochopping to glee, how about one of the new bike with a nice rack?  i mean, wouldn't everyone want a hot Ducati with boobies???

and no jokes either.  i don't want Mrs Garrett's from the facts of life with the freckles on the left can, lets have some nice ones.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I am surprised to see the dark frames on these bikes. I understand that only having to inventory one color frame makes it easier. But come on that trellis frame is something I want to see. As soon as I can convince myself I can live without the bike a couple of months I want to get mine PC red

According to the ducati site, the pearl and red bikes will have black frame and graphite wheels while the black s model will have a bronze frame and wheels.

Agree, I'd love a red frame on the pearl white I'm getting

Wow, it definitely makes a statement in terms of technology and performance.  Stylistically though the 1098 and the older Monster are much nicer.  I don't think they spent too much money designing it.   Seems like a spur of the moment thing that came out of a cappuccino high at a group meeting.  Man, I just don't know...

In other words, just like how the Monster was designed by Galluzzi...

Hmm...looks like it's grimacing from constipation...but still better than the one Ducati has come up with
'04 S4R (996 Motor)
-Arrow CF Exhaust
-RaceTech Gold Valve suspension F/R
-Precious little else because I like what Ducati came up with

I have spent some time looking at headlight images to see what I can photochop on the Fighter but I can't seem to find anything that looks natural.

I'm guessing that once someone has one "in hand", they will figure out something. Especially how to blend the instrument display that is piggybacked on the existing head light. There is still a possibility of using a small windscreen to hide the instrument gauge a-la monster. That would prevent the sharp lines of the gauges from clashing from a normal headlight bucket of your choosing.

i suck at photoshop presents... using the old monster headlight on a perfectly new bike.
Keep in mind the perspective on the headlight is soo wrong, but it was free and no cats were harmed in the making of this image.
