That would look more believable if it was greenuke:
Looks like a photoshop experiment but with far too many angles and straight lines to even remotely get near the current Ducati styling
No indicators give the game away a bit though. Still, it is a great idea.
400cc Scrambler?
The Thais seem to think that there is going to be a 400cc variant for the Far East market.

I can confirm at least three of the new models.
The X, Y & Z
New Scrambler coming - but not what was expected!
Bolognatoday is reporting that Ducati worked in collaboration with Italwin to develop a Fat-Bike complete with electric motor which should top out at a brain bending 25 km/h from it's 250W motor and 26V 11Ah battery.

First spy photos of the 400 Scrambler

It looks just like the current 800 to me but I guess that's not surprising since it's just a smaller version of the same engine. However looking carefully at the gallery pictures you can see that the forks are conventional "right way up", the exhaust headers are different, the mirrors are round and the swinging arm appears to be slimmer. The picture though is of a prototype and what it ends up as at production time could be quite different.

There is a "Race" version available too which looks like the exhaust on the current 1299.

400cc Scrambler genius and what a great entry machine for the brand, will be really interesting to see the Enduro tested alongside the big KTM's and Beemer, 157BHP in a mid range Panigale - thats Superbike power from just a few years ago that will be interesting to see as well.
However I'm surprising myself here but I am Love ing the Mad Diavel - I fully appreciate that Ducati have taken what was already a Marmite toastie and stuffed it full of Pastrami and Olives - but wow that looks incredible - can't accuse Borgo Panigale of not having any imagination!

The Diavel could have done with some fat blade type forks like a Vincent but with modern damping - that's imagination that is!

Love the new Diavel. Scrambler 400 inspired for the up and coming. 959?? Was thinking of an upgrade, but will definitely be sticking to my 899. Emission compliant yes. Ruined the looks of a beautiful machine..Defintely (my opinion, but alot are sharing it with those awaful exhausts). Flying over on Thursday to the EICMA, so will post my piccies related to the Duc's upon my return

I wouldn't worry to much about the Euro 4 shotgun pipes - it looks just like a regular Pani with the Akra's in place - I would be more upset about those hideous USA style reflectors on the forks

Just had a look around EICMA as I managed to get a pass for the Trade Day. The only innovation trend at the show seemed to be in Electric bikes of all types. On the Ducati stand I think the little Scrambler is a great idea, honestly that Diavel...
I know I'm a dinosaur as I believe Ducati's best work was the Bevels and belts up to the 916. That Diavel to my eyes is a crime.
Anyway, on a lighter note I leave you with some non Ducati related pics.
