Spy photos and info of the new Ducati 1199 superbike are surfacing around the web, the 1199 was co-developed by Troy Bayliss who has been lapping it at Mugello circuit and according to him it’s a BEAS !! -he managed to match Stoner’s lap time on the GP10-

The bike is called Superquadrata -Super Square- reference to the ultra short stroke of the all new V-twin engine, and as we can see from the spy shots the new bike is a shorter, lighter and much more compact, the new engine will have gear driven cams to maintain the valve timing at high revs.

It’s also rumored that the bike will be frameless -an innovation Ducati patent last year – anyway ECMA is only a couple of month away and thats where we except the new beast will be launched.

I wouldn’t be surprised, they are the only company with loads of cash while all other bike manufacturers are in the red.

LT1600

The straight six has been rumored for a long time. The new 1300 engine isn’t short on power, last I checked it produced between 160 to 175hp in various K models, so I don’t really see the need for a six, even if the Goldwing has it.
The current flying brick engine in the K1200LT first appeared in 1985 as a 1000cc engine and has been tweaked to the max and is more than ready to be retired. So, a new flagship LightTruck is due. I’m sure it will have every bell and whistle known to man, I wonder if iDrive will be included from their car line.

Rummers of a 6 cylinder LT has been around for a while, but now it seams these rummers are kind of true, the iDrive System and electronic seats are some of it’s features.

Gold Wing here comes the LT.
