Sweet Jesus!

QuikMike · 09-13-2007, 01:24 PM

I've been anxiously awaiting some live footage of this thing in action...and alas, here it is....

Video: Ducati Desmosedici Test: First Verdict. - Motorcycle News - MCN

I gotta admit though, I thought it would sound meaner than it does, but it is a road bike, so of course is has to SOUND more docile than it probably is...

ONEvcs · 09-13-2007, 01:32 PM

OK, that's it. I'm buying one.

phobe · 09-13-2007, 01:41 PM

BRB, gotta go pound one out. :wacking:

I started a thread on this, on Rogue a week ago. Found out they start shipping in October. One Rogue member is getting one. I guess he had a printout or something because this is what he posted.

The current status is:

0- 1000 Orders have been taken.
0- Production began in August of 2007
0- 482 Orders from 999R owners will be
delivered by Dec.31,2007.
0- 515 Orders will be delivered
before June 30,2008.
0- Orders taken before Feb 2007 will be
delivered before August 31, 2008.
0- New orders taken in 2007 will receive
a price increase of aprox. 5,000 euros.

Why oh why Honda? Make a new V4!!!!!!!!!!!

Shenders1 · 09-13-2007, 03:58 PM

Can you imagine seeing that thing lined up next to you on the start grid for your local Novice race?

CBRVFR · 09-13-2007, 04:00 PM

Sounds pretty healthy to me..

Well, the bike is already painted as a Bwhip replica, so why not?

RedRider · 09-13-2007, 04:42 PM

OMG...and it's street legal.

slickwill · 09-13-2007, 05:28 PM

I've had a picture of one as my wallpaper for over a year and a half.

Sounds good to me and ditto on the Honda V4.

ND4SPD · 09-13-2007, 05:35 PM

I'd be pissed if I paid $65k for a bike and it already had a burnt out headlight.

And a shiny new Duck...she'd put in a pond.

bwhip · 09-14-2007, 07:41 PM

I'd kind of like to have numbers like this...

Shenders1 · 09-14-2007, 08:10 PM

Shoot, that's crankshaft horsepower. I doubt this thing makes more than 190 at the rear wheel

slickwill · 09-14-2007, 08:44 PM

Wow, someday they'll outlaw numbers like that.

QuikMike · 09-19-2007, 11:16 AM
