I think Ducati is still pretty exclusive. All of the 1098s I've seen in the wild I could count on the fingers of my two hands. I see that many Japanese sport bikes every day.
I like the looks of the concept drawing SS above. I'd consider it if they made it. A few years ago I would have scoffed at it but now having owned a '96 SS/SP for the last three years, I am a convert. I love the concept and I love the simplicity of the aircooled engine. Make that in a 1200 with more power and tork, and a swoopy _Ducati_ body like the 1098 and I'd be a happy camper.
