A fellow snagged two shots (and a video) of the less-than-secret replacement for the 999 on a tour of the Ducati factory. CW says it will be announced in 2 weeks at the Milan motorcycle show. CW also says 916 fans (nee 999 haters) will rejoice, and Duc will suffer a bit of the Osbourne effect.

I for one welcome our new side-by-side headlamp overlords. Now where is the 798?
