My mom made me promise when I started racing at 15 that I would never ride a street bike. 38 years later I am still keeping that promise....if I ever hit the lottery I would buy one of these bad boys and use it for a piece of art in the living room.

These things are bad azz.

I just sold my Triumph Speed Triple...the street fighter genre of street bikes is absolutely a blast....

And that ducati is the best looking of them all...followed by the Speed Triple (though the aprilla tuono looks good too)....

I think that bike is one ugly Duck.

I like street bikes with fairing.

And I too promised mom I would not ride a street bike....

It's funny how different people can be. I think that is one ugly ride. Put a full fairing on it and I'd probably change my mind. FMF does make some nice stuff.

I am kinda fond of nekkid superbikes


pretty cool, lower cowl particularly gives it a KTM'ish angularity -

and like Tiki said, "trackdays"... the only way to really appreciate these things, and Mom may even approve Smile

Track days would work but I would rather focus on racing MX. I have raced more this year than I have in the past seven years.


BTW, if I do ever hit the lottery I will for sure have a trick street bike sitting in my house just to look at.....I also enjoy going to sport bike nights here in SoCal to check out the street bikes.


Thanks for the FMF kudos

I put an FMF titanium pipe on my R6. Performs well and sounds good too.

Wow! Talk about testosterone overload. Makes my former Monster 600 look like a wimp or something...
