Leggi in italiano!
Picture
What if the new (look-alike) Ducati Monster prototype spied testing is not a new Ducati Monster But a neo-retro café racer?
The Monster 821. Point of fact  will be updated due to the Euro 4 regulation and will embed a general update, a new Dust Grey paint and a new headlamp with omega-design DRL led accent.​

​
But what about that mysterious air cooled "Monster" tested alongside the Monster? Most of the people think that is an entry level Monster 803cc. We don't.
At this stage we are in the speculation field. This fall at Intermot or EICMA we'll find out the truth but...sometimes connecting the dots delivers an unexpected result...
When a part of the picture is missing, it takes to squeeze your eyes to to guess the hidden shape.

We can spot the Monster 821's front fork complete with calipers, mudguard and headlamp. And the Monster's seat.
That's enough to make a Monster?  
The bike shows a brand new trellis frame that appears to fit the Scrambler's size. It is not linked to the cylinder heads like it happens on Monsters, and the bike features the rear swingarm from the Scrambler lineup.
Is that a Monster "classic" As someone supposed, or maybe a Scrambler boosted with raging steroids?
 
On the bright side, the demand of neo-retro models never stop growing. 
The market asks for laid back motorcycles inspired by the golden age of industrial design. 
Ducati is actually surfing this wave with the Scrambler, but there is plenty of room for a road oriented bike for instance. 
Scrambler lineup is meant to feature the 400 and 800 cc displacement only. This document of the California Air Resurces Board (in the middle of picture above) shows two more Scrambler 803 models on their way. The off roader Scrambler DS (Dual Sport) and the Scrambler CR (Cafè Racer). Due to this, the prototype conceivably is a Scrambler Cafè Racer.
 
A full displacement post-heritage motorcycle? 
Triumph and BMW already have their remunerative 1.200 cc models and Ducati in the recent past used to produce an iconic 2 valve 1.100 L-Twin . This historical mill should perfectly fit where the 800cc fit. So why don't revamp this 1.100cc engine, and make a "post heritage" road oriented bike around it? Time will tell if we're right.
 
Let's say five bucks on a 1.100cc Roadster on its road!
Have your say or...place your bet!
