Whoa. I love Ducati's. The exposed framework makes me happy inside. It almost looks like you're about to lose grip in one of those pics. Tires are almost completely loss of grip.

whats the rear on that, 160? maybe it just looks small from the picture =p ever think of getting a 1098 R? Love Ducati's

[hatchy_gt-s]

Really cool man! Dont you just love that road! I go there when I have 3 day weekend with my ducati (848) as well. I wish i had pics like that!

[NYp8tBaller07]

Being that you guys have duc's I know getting a lightweight flywheel really improves all around performance. Then theres the other things you can do lol

Playr what other pipes do you have?

nothing wrong with a monster, looks like fun. That photographer has a pretty sweet gig.

[playr158]

Glad others have ducatis. I just have forza straight pipes. Id really like to get another gsxr though

[NYp8tBaller07]

ever think of an 2010 BMW 1000RR? more pricey than a gsxr but wayyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyyy better lol. IDK I see them everywhere and I don't really like them, besides my uncle 748 smokes gsxr's all day lol

Ya the 1000RR is nice but thats if you have the options, and that is highly suggested. The GSXR is about the same price give or take 500 but it has all the options on the base model.

liter bikes are pretty pointless. I personally think the 1000rr is ugly.
The only liter bike i'm even thinking about is a 04-07 yamaha R1 and thats just cause i think it looks good.

otherwise i'll stick to a GSXR 750/600 if i go sportbikes.

I kinda want something more like the Ducati multistrada for commuting and adventure trips.

Ever think of an 08 R6? super light, they rev to I think 18K, and the 08 had the most power. When I get a bike I'm thinking of getting one.

you should get a gsxr 750. A bit more power than a 600 and handle just as good. I used to have an 08 gsxr 750 and it was a lot of fun. My dad and bro have literbikes and the power on those things is just stupid fast. They output about 30 more hp than my 750 did. the R6 revs to 16,500 if I remember correctly. Not 18. most 600 are real peaky just like honda civics integra, and s2000. either 600 or 750 you cant go wrong. Especially if your into carving canyons.
