Looks like someone messed up.  Someone got off the bike and didn't make sure the kickstand was down.

Yikes! Think it was the model who knocked it over ? At least it wasn't the V85 !

You would thing that the front axle would have been bolted into a stand.

If it was the model that knocked it over, I think as punishment, she should be sent here to work as my assistant for a few months.

Why?  Do you need help knocking your bikes over?

She's from the entitled "Millennium" group.  You don't want her.

Ah yes...the obligatory "It wasn't me" hand gesture.

Well, if you notice the red laser picked up by the camera in the foreground, that is a light curtain most likely hooked up to an alarm so not likely a spectator did it.  And seeing that she was probably the only person on the stage, must have still been someone else.

 Dollars to donuts her significant other says "  Oh just hop up there and I'll get your picture, it's ok". Note the other guy with a camera and his foot on the stage.
    Snowflakes is my guess.

Bike shouldn't be there on the prop stand, somebody could have been hurt if it fell off the podium.

With that pricey of a bike and all the looky loo's, a Ducati rep. should have been monitoring it for security.  The general public is in vs. just the businesses, the need for security would be higher.
