First look Valentino Rossi's Ducati Desmosedici

It’s official, we love Alex Briggs and Twitter.
Valentino Rossi’s Australian mechanic has given us this sneak peek of Rossi’s new Ducati ride with all the rider’s beloved stickers on it.
The bike is black because Rossi is still contracted to Yamaha and he’ll be wearing logo free dark leathers and we won’t be getting any direct comments from the Italian on this two day test, a condition that Yamaha demanded in order to let him test.

The Valencia test thould kick off in a few minutes, if the weather holds up because it’s threatening rain.
