Sigue Sigue Sputnik Paso Chaser

Ducati really missed a trick by not exploring a brand crossover with Sigue Sigue Sputnik for the 1986 Ducati Paso.

The whole thing could have been presented by Max Headroom with incidental music by Jan Hammer to make it the most Eighties/Cyberpunk thing ever.

This post is a response to an earlier post here- https://www.mercenary.ie/2020/10/kda-v4-panigale.html

K/DA V4 Panigale

Um... Yeah, no...

I don't know where to begin with this... 

This is Akali. Akali is a singer in a girl band called K/DA. 

And that's Akali's custom V4 Panigale designed especially for her by Ducati Design Centre. 

So far so good, okay? 

Except that K/DA is made up of a group of girls from the computer game League of Legends published by Riot Games. So Akali's not real. Neither is K/DA and neither is the custom designed V4 Panigale. They're all virtual. 

So this is a virtual collaboration between Akali, K/DA, League of Legends, Riot Games and Ducati Design Centre. Presumably because Ducati wants to exploit that elusive Virtual Girl Band Stan/Gamer/Hyper Motorcycle Owner crossover dollar or something...

If this had happened in 1986 with Sigue Sigue Sputnik and the Ducati Paso I would have been all over it, but now it just makes me feel old. And tired. And confused...

Definition of a Streetfighter

Back in the early '90s, before the term 'Streetfighter' came to mean a Predator themed GSXR with its seat unit at an improbable angle, it was a catchall term for performance custom bikes.

Those were interesting times...
