Overpitch - jolly observant of you re bar ends, good man! Could be down to Ducati's "just-in-time" production line, that wasn't, err, well, just-in-time for the demo fleet
My understanding of the electronics package and TC, is that their totally integrated. To me, this means Ducati have employed controls that are proactive, rather than simply reactive.
If we consider a reactive TC system, once traction has broken, corrective actions are pretty limited - brake wheel or cut-ignition, which make for an intrusive rider experience.
Interestingly, if the new system now employs acceleration sensors, it would have a new found ability to predict and manage traction breaking scenarios, before stuff started getting loose.
Nice
