I might be the only one here with this sort of thinking but once I take delivery those red wheels are being wrapped to black. There's just something about having black wheels on a white Ducati that I like. Always like that look with sporty cars and on bikes that will surely work well, ESPECIALLY on a ducati of this caliber.

You very well could be the only one here who's thinking of wrapping those red wheels black. :D

I actually prefer red wheels on a white body, makes the white pop out even more.

Red wheels on the white S look fine for me.

Wheel color is one thing, but I'm a little surprised Ducati didn't opt for forged aluminum wheels on the S model like they have on other model lines. It must have been a price point issue.

You can get black wheels on a Honda Rebel (they're standard!) but not red.. Just sayin'. Joking aside, the panda look works for some vehicles, I'm sticking with red.

Don't get me wrong, it doesn't look bad in any way... it's just the red looks better ;)

I though the R bikes got the forged wheels. S bikes usually stop at the upgraded suspension.
I agree with Snyped and would prefer the black wheels on the white bike. My preference is the red bike but if there was only a white available at the time those red wheels wouldnt be there for too long. Wih the red wheels it looks like a lego bike to me.

Bane.

At the moment I have a Multi 1200 DVT from 2015 and maybe I will buy a SS as a second bike but first i would like to see the bike with golden wheels. Could somebody photoshop a red SS with golden Marchesini Wheels and a short numberplate holder? I'm not an artist with PS, so I can use any help.
I have the red bike/black wheels going. I believe I am going to add these stickers on:

for an extra $30 they can be ordered saying SuperSport or Ducati instead of motoinkz

I made a few (very bad) photoshops with a rear Marchesini wheel but I like the way it looks! The last one is with a wheel of a Monster 1100. I would like to know if it would fit on the SS. What is your opinion. Not the ps but the bike :wink2:>:) Maybe some of you are more experts with PS.
