HP3 ?

The HP2 with road wheels is a Hypermotard - WELL worth trying one.

THAT looks like another photo-shop job to me.

A serious contender to the monster would be nice.

Ok, good start. Now, take off that silly front fender/light abstraction, and create a small sport (fly) screen based around the ST headlight (BRIGHT!), and put the ST engine in it...... make ABS optional AND switchable. Add Ohlins as an option, and you've got a Roadster. Hypermotard is not a real category, it's a Ducati misnomer for a street fighter or roadster. A high fender "look" does not a supermoto make - and anything this heavy & bigger than 660cc is not a SM. Now. offer it in BMW blue & white (all BMW factory racing vehicles are white w/blue or the ///M motorsport colors).

almost there.

A good roadster needs an attractive headlight, take the unit from the R1200S and mount it within a bikini type fairing.

PMSL!!

the top one is a Rockster with R1100R tank and seat, K12R rear wheel and R1200 heads grafted on!!!! The single headlamp is off the K75R or something from the late 80's!!

Bottom one is an F650GS with an R1200GS on top! With what looks like a K1200RS can! weird

That first one is closer to what I'm hoping for. Tweaks of the design elements with the new 1200 series motor. Nothing too radical up front like the 1200ST PLEASE. Its not that bad in person but YIKES.

That "F800GS" is just stupid... I wanna see the actual F8's that are actually supposed to be coming, do we have get Photo Chops of bikes that arent even in the showroom yet????
