I haven't purchased a single vehicle (car or bike) based on built up hype. I get the intent behind it all but people are gonna have interest (or lack thereof) in a vehicle regardless if they are disguised before going public. If it's gonna sell, it's gonna sell no matter what. Again, just my negative .02

Maybe Ducati have leaked this to ..... our reaction before final production tooling for the bodywork.
We could all chip in some suggestions and impact the appearance of the next Ducati beauty

I suspect Ducati will play it safe with the looks of the V4 Panigale even though it would be nice to take a risk with a complete new look, they are probably gun shy still from the 999. Probably more of an Superbike evolution.
Having said that I think there are some design features they could introduce without a risk. I think a version of the SL exhaust would be a hit, anything that makes the stance more aggressive. Completely change the rear set design and functionality (Grippy pegs etc). Do something more aggressive but functional with the Mirrors.

I've taken some pretty ...... photos with my iPhone over the years, but never have I accidentally applied a fish-eye lens to a photo of a bike which distorts the shape and makes the wheels not round and forks bent. There is always a "theme" for leaked Ducati pre-release spy photos, surely someone besides me has noticed this over the years.
We have 2 months of this to endure before EICMA....... For reference here was an example of what we were looking at before the 2012 1199 Panigale came out:
That's what I've been saying all along. Couldn't agree with you more

happy Jarel?
its still ugly as sin no matter how you capture it, or what lens/filter you use.
and we're specifically responding to the released image -- yes, if the real version is svelte and minimal then we'll all react accordingly.

Nope, now the front wheel looks like it slammed into the back of a Prius!
