1199RS Nudo
Naked Desmoquattro: 1.2 Liter V-Twin
the 1199 RS Nudo puts the emphasis on classic Ducati: clear and simple statement of purpose, elegant line and curve, and straightforward expression of structure, engineering and systems. svelte and light, the 1199 RS is a naked desmoquattro Ducati founded on the existing production 1199 motorcycle frame and engine.
the design fundamentals are expressed through expressive use of Ducati red, and accent of frame and the brute yet handsome forms of the suspended V-twin engine. while fluid curves contrast with lines of the truss and direct structural forces, the plastic forms of tank & seat complement the hard geometries of engine and mechanics. non-essentials are removed, and attention is directed to functional detail
