RADical Ducati employed Type U to completely redesign the body styling of the 749/999, to reflect the raw emotional appeal of the great Ducati’s of the past, most notably the 916. Type U Motorcycle Design was founded by Michael Uhlarik, award-winning former senior designer for Yamaha (MT-03, TZR, 2003 M1), and they provided complete design services from concept sketching to full size 3D and computer modeling.

 The RAD Project 01, is RADical Ducati’s response to the disappointing Ducati 749/999 styling; the model that succeeded the fabulous Ducati 916. The Ducati 916 represented perfection in functionality, form, and in the tradition of Ducati’s technological leadership in design, which was ahead of its time. According to many critics, the 916′s successor was impersonal, bland, boring, with no added excitement, and thus it was a great disappointment. Since the advent of the Ducati 749/999, RADical Ducati began toying with the idea of “changing the design of the bike.” Although they did not have the potential of a “big factory”, with their resources and means, they began the project to RADicalize the aesthetics and functionality of the 749/999.
