Seems to be some doubt as to whether the V4 Multi will be launched for 2020 or 2021.

New v4 Street fighter and 959 replacement spied

The street fighter looks big in that clip.

Possible v4 959 sounds interesting

The 959 is a v twin.

Duke this is what the article I posted said:

"Meanwhile, the Panigale V4 inspired ‘959’ will be brought into line with its big brother by sharing a number of parts and styling with the Superbike, though there remains uncertainty over whether it will retain a V2 or receive the full V4 treatment. We’re happy to wait for the surprise when it comes in an official capacity."

Have you heard elsewhere that its confirmed a v twin at the next revision?

The photos I have seen all show a v twin engine in the test mule. I think Ducati would be foolish to completely stop making v twin sportsbikes and financially I can’t see how a smaller v four works.

A v4 959s would be nice though

It would but I can’t see it being any cheaper than the 1100. The figures don’t add up.

Is anyone going to any of the bike shows this year? Milan was a bit too manic for my tastes.

I was considering covering the NEC show again , it'll only cost me fuel and parking and I can take requests if there is something you would like to see but cannot go yourself.

Cheers Jack. I might go this year. See if I can blag a press pass

If I did Milan again it would be midweek but seeing as it’s a week after Johnson’s No Deal Brexit I’m not risking it this year.

Cologne is 2020 so that might be worth a look in autumn 2020.

Woild it not follow the 959/1299 pricing policy / difference?

When is the NEC show this year?

16th to 24th Nov

I'll probably go this year as missed last year and went Excel instead.

I'll take a view closer to the date. It depends which new bikes are going to be there. I'll probably go midweek after the first weekend.

Yeah weekends on mobbed.

If I'm free I'll tag along so you can buy me a cake
