(Interview translated from Italian with Davide Giugliano)
Next year will not run with the new Panigale .
"I'm really disappointed because I really wanted the relationship I had with Ducati. With them, I won the Superstock 1000 and I made my debut in Superbike and I would be happy to continue to work with the Italian manufacturer, but unfortunately it was not possible. I'm sorry for not being able to continue a job I was doing for some time and was giving good results. "
What do you think of the decision to Ducati?
"do not know in detail, and therefore do not discuss the reasons that led Althea Ducati and not to agree to the next year. Have undoubtedly had their reasons. It leaves me a little bitter taste that after waiting so long and I found myself without a bike at the end of October. Luckily Genesio did not abandon me and actually know who is already working for the future of myself and our team. Are in these moments that you see who is your friend and who turns his back on you. "
What will you do next year?
"They are quiet as far as my future because I know that Bevilacqua has always believed in me and will do so again. Is working in my interest also thinking about my future and my career and for that I just have to thank him and feel lucky to have found someone like him. I also know that he does not compromise and who is trying to get the best for his team, as he has always done. Not content to participate and that makes me optimistic about the future. I still want to thank Ducati, with whom I spent wonderful years, full of successes. The Ducati fans will always remain in my heart for all the love that I have always been and I hope that I continue to follow with sympathy, even if they see me on another bike. "

Valentino Rossi spoke on Sunday of the frustration he has suffered over the past two years with Ducati. After two years with the iconic Italian factory, the gap to the front runners remains the same, and the problems Rossi noted at the first test in Valencia 2010 are still there. Now, he told the press, his focus is on riding the Yamaha M1 again, to assess just what the damage of his two years at Ducati has been. Whether any of the riders heading to Ducati for 2013 would be able to master the Ducati was still open, Rossi said.
The Italian was philosophical after the race at Phillip Island, having finished a mediocre seventh, some 37 seconds behind the winner at a track where Rossi once won five years in a row. He brushed off the question of whether the result was a bad one or not with a quip. "I expected more! Yesterday, I was 2 seconds behind, 2 seconds for 27 laps, I expect 54 seconds! So was a good race," Rossi joked.

Since its 2010 revamp, the Ducati Multistrada 1200 has been busy. It became king of Pikes Peak (spawning an eponymous model version), it helped keep the lights on during the economic downturn (thanks to sales of 20,500 units) and it grew the ranks of Ducatisti. Four out of five Multistrada buyers are first-time Ducati owners, and they tend to be older and rack up more miles than others.

What would be the most desirable iconic naked sportbike ? Answer to that would be the Ducati Monster, the aesthetic appeal and structural efficiency is what made this bike iconic.
While most drawn to the Ducati Monster for its raw beauty and performance, many consider it a blank canvas, perfect for customization and personalization.
The feature of the day a Ducati Monster 1100R belongs to Arrick Maurice brand manager of Ducati’s North American market. Arrick’s custom Ducati Monster 1100R was a non-eligible entry for the 2011 Monster Challenge.
