Ti's true. Does have a lot of edges.

IF they removed the Ducati logos, you'd swear it was a KTM though... not that that's a bad thing as such... but it's very KTM... I expect the orangeness plays a factor in that of course.

Should have used an old square case bevel drive motor.

[Count Steer]

Nah. They've made the trellis look like a set of weird crash-bars or some sort of lifting cradle that gets removed after the bike has shipped. Looks quite a neat bike under the scaffolding.

Oh yeah...mirrors.

I watched the entire series on YouTube. He's a talented and engaging chap and has come a long way with his mechanical skills over the last few years. The process for creating that bodywork needed both skillz, plus the patience of a saint.

I'm not a fan of the finished bike though. The monster is a fairly pretty bike out of the box, hard to alter it and make it better.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Actually looks like an electric bike to me, especially from the non exhaust side (obviously!).

[Noggin]

Not sure there's much 'playing' with those angles! Makes me sad as the Monster 600 looks good without edges!!

[Lutin]

Why would you want to make a Ducati, or any other bike for that matter, look like an electric bike?

Edit: And it's got armpit mirrors.

My thoughts exzactly. The radiator area just screams battery compartment.

[The Spin Doctor]

Styled with the proverbial bread knife.

I thought KTM had built something with a Ducati engine when i saw that .......... i think its gopping in all honesty like most KTM's

Only if she were blind and had no sense of touch either!
