What's not a Ducati but was clearly influenced by Ducati design language? If the first word out of your mouth is "Morbidelli," you're halfway there. But would you have completed that thought with a little 125, and specifically the N125V? Well, you probably would if you've seen it. It's hard to deny the evidence of your own eyes, isn't it?
If you've ever heard one of those advertising jingles where it's extremely clear that someone told whoever made the jingle to "make it sound like X popular song, but not so much that we get sued," then you're probably thinking along the correct lines here. Although Ducati formally ditched the Monster's signature trellis frame all the way back with the 2021 model year (can you believe it's been that long?) that hasn't stopped plenty of others from making use of its expressive lines.
Plenty of other bikes through the years have had single-sided swingarms, but it was also once a famous feature of the Monster line, once upon a time. The tank shape, the way it flows into the saddle and tail, and the general silhouette all give a clear nod to their influences. And to be completely fair, this isn't meant in a negative way (believe it or not).
