Re: I hate rich people...

I know someone who is getting one. I don't hate them but wouldn't it be nice to have that thing in the garage. Sadly, many of them won't be ridden but will sit in some 'collection'.

Re: I hate rich people...

I'm selling the one I picked up on ebay. The bike is currently in England but I've arranged for a reputable 3rd party shipper.

Re: I hate rich people...

Speaking of rich people, this was on the cover of the the Robb Report Motorcycle issue. Not quite a desmo but more visually appealing. Upgraded with ti con rods and quite a few other trick bits.

Edit: Just showed the pics to my wife, she said I can have a Ducati it I paint it to look like this one.

I love when they put one tire company's stickers on then another brand tire.

I also find comfort in the fact that no matter how much money these people have I can still buy the same tires.

Those tires are Pirelli’s, they are the new tread pattern for the DOT-race tires. The tread pattern that came spec’ed on the 1098’s was the 2006 DOT-race tires / tread pattern.
This is what it says about the tires on DucatiSpot?

I take consolation in the fact that his feet can't touch the ground whilst sitting on the bike.

Neither could Loris'.

Cruise gets all the cool bikes - he had a Triumph that could change over to dirt tires in a single frame of a movie.

I'd pay for that. Not more than about $5, but I would pay.

Ditto. Put me down for some piece of busted plastic. I MAY go, say $10, but like the sheep here, prefer the $5 range.

Man you guys are mean. One added benefit of the bagger besides, legs and comfort, able to collect and haul away "road treasure".
