Evening,

Just a quick one lad's (and ladettes') - on my travels today I saw, briefly as I couldn't stop, the most ugly Ducati I've evr seen. In fact the only ugly Ducati I've ever seen as the rest have been gorgeous.

It looked a bit like a moto-crosser, had a big ugly single headlight and the colour didn't look like proper Ducati Red.

What was it and is it better than it looked?

Didn't know Ducati did 'crossers. Live and learn...

I am deeply wounded cry

How could you possibly refer to my P & J as ugly.shoot

As they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, or as we should say, that of the rider.

I would agree that next to a 916 & 1098 it could be termed as an ugly duckling. However next to a BMW GS, Honda Verado, V'strom etc. it hold its own in the looks stakes well I believe.

It needs to be ridden.smile

Ooops! Sorry, was hoping I would get away with that without upsetting any owners!

Nice 5 though. smile

How rude! I adore my Multistrada, it's the best road bike I've ever owned. I've done some subtle mods to mine and now it's just like a giant Supermoto to ride, perfect smile Can't see it when you're on it and I'd rather be riding then admiring wink
