Apparently, sexy girls sell motorcycles.



 I don't think I've seen girls this pretty riding cruisers in real life, but Victory owners can dream...
 The new 2016 Multistrada 1200 Enduro
 New Ducati XDiavel. Note how far the footpegs are forward.
 This Ducati DesmosediciRR MotoGP bike actually belongs to Andrea Dovizioso.

 There are a ton of these small displacement Chinese makes which I've never heard of before, like this Sanyang "Wolf."
 A sporty BMW S1000RR.

This Moto Guzzi MGX21 is based on the Audace and El Dorado,
but it's only a concept bike so far as I know.
I think Kawasaki's bikes were handled by their Monster Energy Girls, like this one on a 300ph H2R.
 Yamaha R1M, along with David Checa's GMT 94 (Yamaha R1)
 Dani Pedrosa's 2015 Repsol Honda MotoGP bike (number 26).  Interestingly, Marc Marquez's bike was stripped of it's number and decals, and sat abandoned in a corner, whereas this motorcycle was the main attraction of the Honda booth.
 Yeah, I'm pretty bored by Hondas as well...
 MV Agusta had one of the best booth's, and we'd find out later in our trip that this Veloce is actually used as a police bike!

2016 959 Panigale

Ducati's new entry-level racebike is now a litre-bike (...shaking my head a little).



 I have a number of friends with 899's and most of them agree it was plenty of bike, but Ducati took the 899 engine and bored it out to a 959cc displacement, increasing the horsepower from 148 to 157.
 This awful looking exhaust will only be present on the Euro models, as American imports will have the typical exhaust, ending at the bottom of the scoop.

2016 Multistrada 1200 Enduro 

Ducati's new enduro/offroad crossover bike is powered by the 1198cc Testastretta 11° V-twin equipped with DVT variable valve timing for 160 bhp and 100 lb.-ft. of torque 2016
 The new Multistrada Enduro looks cool, though who but a rich playboy would really take this bike in the dirt?
 At the same time, if you want to go adventure-touring in style, this Ducati is the way to go.

2016 DUCATI XDIAVEL CRUISER

Honestly, the XDiavel was a little weird, with my feet about parallel to my hands in riding position.

  However, Ducati's first foray into the cruiser market brings a belt-driven Testastretta 11° 1198cc V-twin, enlarged to 1262cc, with 156 horsepower.

2016 DUCATI SCRAMBER FLAT TRACK PRO & SIXTY2

  Ducati's new line of 399cc Scramblers is all about the youth market.
The new Ducati Sixty2 Scrambler will conform to Europe's A2 regulations, making it attractive to young riders with only a junior motorcycle license.

  with games and branded collateral everywhere. 

2016 Monster 1200R

 The new Monster 1200R is the most powerful naked bike ever built by Ducati.
 I still like it far better than the XDiavel
