Is it me or have the stopped using the trellis style frame on this one?

Interesting without the bodywork, not trellis framed like most Dukes, something entirely new a monocoque

1299 uses the same engine as 1298.

I'm also quite interested in the new transmission. Apparently it's sort of a mashup of their current no-clutch upshifting one and a DSG for motorcycles. At least, that's the rumor.

1299 uses the same engine as 1298.

I think you mean 1198. The Panigale R is still 1198 because Superbike regs limit Vtwins to 1200cc. The Pingale and Pingale S are 1285cc.

I think you mean 1198.

Correct.
