No mention of price.. I'll stick with my £14-16k estimate.
I really want one. Ultimate track bike I think

",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
the new supersport machine will be built in two versions, one for Europe and Asia, the other the US and Canada. Each market is limited to just 765 bikes, and only a fraction of that number will be available in the UK, meaning demand is likely to dramatically outstrip supply ."
I wonder if they'll have L/H exit silencers.?

***shocked face***
I reckon it'll be around the £15k mark. Much depends on how much tech is on the bike. Making it limited is going to push the price up. The RC version of the F3 is about £18k.

I was just discussing this with a colleague and we think it may be £17-18k / no more than a Ducati V4 (I assume about £18k)

There aren't many bikes to compare it to. MV are the only ones doing a middle weight triple which is why I mentioned the RC.
959 Corse is about £16k. You can't compare the 765 to the V4 IMO.

Price and image will be released at Silverstone Motogp round.
I would guess around £16-17k. I hope it looks like the Moto2 bike and not a Daytona675. It will have this colour scheme though.

Less than £15k would be a bargain IMO..

That's a strange looking paintjob. Looks like a pencil sketch.
The bike itself looks great though....all business.

I love everything about it, think the paint job looks awesome and that would be almost the perfect sports bike.
Hate to see what that’ll be in Aussie dollars though

I presume there's going to be a top end paint job rather than just copying the paint work they put on the Moto2 mules?

The finished bikes will feature a largely monochrome Union Jack paintscheme – inspired by the Moto2 development mule’s – with official Moto2 branding.
Sounds it’s going to be close to the pic Duke posted.

I didn't see that bit.
Hmmmm. I hope it looks better than it sounds.

Yup....terms like "monochrome" don't sound too appealing.
