Ducati to take on Harley Davidson at their own (sort of) game? Word on the street that seems to be backed up by Ducati high command is that a bike may be ready for sale in 2010.

At least Claudio Domenicalli has said that Ducati are looking at a 170hp stroked testrastretta powered 1400cc cruiser. A prototype is heavily rumoured to be running and in preliminary testing in Bologna.

 

The pics are a series of renders for www.asphaltandrubber.com by (clearly incredibly talented) designer Luca Bar from Bar Design. Word is that the Vyper will feature a low seat and large section rear tyre... standard issue custom cruiser stuff alongside this however the trademark trellis frame will mix the styling up a bit. I have heard a lot of people talking the design down but I reckon if the Vyper looks anything like the Bar-Design renders they will be onto a winner. This machine is clearly aimed at the American market and will supply an interesting alternative to what is currently available especially when you take the HP into account... currently a powerful Harley off the shop floor makes closer to 100 than 200hp.
