Feeder video here.

Rumoured to be a proper off road Multistrada and a feet up cruiser Diavel.

Hopefully something good which knowing Ducati I'm sure there was.

Was airborne at the time so will catch up on YouTube later hopefully.

Just watched it again , the pani is a bit underwhelming for me, I do like the look of the new more off road versions of the DVT though, very nice.

Just read the 959 has a 10 bhp increase which is great, but not so good is the 7kg weight increase mainly generated by the new shotgun exhausts.

I guess the same exhaust will appear on the 1299 eventually. Maybe now is the golden time to buy a Ducati sportsbike before Euro4 ruins the looks of a design icon.

I fancy a nearly new Panigale 1299 in about a years time. They are currently offering the 1299 with free Akrapovic exhausts so hopefully a low miler with plenty of bling will be available for sensible...ish money.

I guess termigoni and akrapovic are loving the new 959 exhaust.

I imagine a race system won't need all the cats required to meet Euro4 regs.

There is a full Akra race system available but they usually cost megabucks. I suspect Ducati may have to offer this as a freebie to get some bikes on the road.

May go back to my original idea of an early 1199 and make it what i want, or wait a few years for a s/h 1299.

That's what I'd do. Aftermarket exhaust fitted straight away. They aren't restricted to the regs OE are.
