A couple of weeks ago we showed you the Ducati car concept by Anthony Colard. Here’s another interesting concept of the french transportation designer, which comes under the name C12-R. The Superbike is based off the Ducati 1198 chassis, but Colard has taken his own perception of the italian motorcycle’s style, and improved upon some of its deficiencies.

Colard redesigned the bodywork completely, the new design includes lower fairing, MotoGP-style exhaust and vented body panels. Underneath it all you can see inspiration from the 1098, but Colard’s thoughts seem to be more complex, than the simple Ducati lines. The concept is even more agressive than the stock 1198. Colard’s aim is to create a limited run of his unique motorcycle, the project’s target price tag is $30 000, but it depends on the final engine specification. Customers can buy a complete finished bike or they can purchase only the body panels and the exhaust for $4000, whih enables the 1098/1198 owners transform their machines.
