Looks pretty good, but what a tall windscreen!

I hope all the duct tape used on the prototype doesn't jack up the price too much. Lol

That duct tape is Ducati's new tip-over damage-prevention system, or TODPS.   Bigok

Looks like a test mule for factory accessories (windscreen and GIVI mount).

The bike will line-up squarely against the BMW R1200GS, the Moto Morini Gran Passo and KTM’s 990 SM-T.



Now that's a bike I would like to try!

They are not tits up.  They just can't pay their suppliers at the moment.

That article I links says that voluntary liquidation is typically a precursor to selling off the assets and breaking up the company. That's pretty tits up if you ask me. Their only hope is that someone swoops in to buy the firm.

They are in full-speed ahead mode, and still releasing their street-version of the Gran Passo.  But really they are just protecting their brand and production, until a magical investor appears.  If no one buys them, yeah then it's tits up.

Latest rumor says there will be multiple versions, standard, S model, T tour model with luggage cases, and even a R model ("Rock") with larger diameter front tire.

Is there some sort of rule that adventure bikes need to be as ugly as the dump I took earlier today? Hurl

The Duc is gonna be ugly, the Multi is ugly. The Moto-Morini is ugly, the BMW GS is ugly, the KTM Adventure is ugly. Even the Uly is ugly. WTF?  Headscratch

Jeff

They're all probably really great bikes, but no Italian motorcycle should be considered ugly. Italians are supposed to build beautiful.

I do find the Uly to be a very good looking bike.

I took a moment to pull the video and enhance a few stills so we've a better idea of the front end of the Multistrada 1200 at least (  http://tr.im/DDbH ). Also found a premature press release from Ducati UK, that gives us insight into the engine - 1198 derived, liquid cooled.  Frankly I'm really anticipating getting a crack at this beastie.
