It is still a '17 machine with '18 colors. ;)
New aero fairing is expexted after a few races + new parts for the tests.

As Neoraptor says, still 2017 bike. They also expect the 2018 bike to have even more power, it didn't sound like it was just going to be 1bhp extra but actually something that should be able to be felt and give them even more of an straightline advantage.

But yeah it looks weird on the front, like there is too much space around the front wheel.

If it isnt needed they why have it?? It's just dead weight if it doesn't provide any preformance bonus (which i am assuming is the reason why they think they dont need it)

I actually quite like the bike.... 8)

OMG! That Duc is SO frigging UGLY!! They must be turning out muppets from design schools these days.... With all the computers controlling the handling and performance of these modern race bikes what performance advantage would that ugly fairing have? Seriously! That is ridiculous! ::) :P

MotoGP is and never has been a beauty contest, unlike the 2 stroke era and especially the rightful blue ribbon 2T GP500's......... Old school is always best!   :P ;) ;D
