New 2012 Ducati Streetfighter models

Ducati is getting busy for its 2012 model year as we expect to see the new Ducati 1199 (or Ducati XTreme) superbike debut at the 2011 EICMA show in November in Milan.
In addition to that model getting a grand entrance though, A&R reports that September will see the new 2012 Ducati Streetfighter models debut.

The Ducati Streetfighter 1198 will replace the 1098 model and will get an extra 100cc to do so.
The naked bike won’t get the Superbike engine, but rather the motor will be the 11° Testastretta engine as used on the Multistrada and Diavel.

No details are available yet on the performance of the new machine, but it should be high enough to let in the Ducati Streetfighter 848.
The latter will become a kind of entry-level model to the Ducati naked bike family, and could use a less powerful Superbike 848 EVO engine to do so.

It should continue the success of the Ducati Superbike 848 models and provide a new style for riders coming to the brand.
On the design front, both bikes will continue the Streetfighter looks.
We’re guessing they will also turn up at EICMA but are apparently getting a pre-release so as not to be overshadowed by the new Superbike when it comes in November.
