I think I'm gonna be sick again. [puke] Not only is the "Streetfighter" the dumbest name in the world and the 2nd ugliest bike next to the new V-Max Yamaha but they even make the beast with two backsed up the 1098R Bayliss Replica!!! How could they?? Italian idiots!! Why not make it look like the normal Xerox livery? It worried me sick when I watched last Sunday's race when Troy had that paint job on his bike that they would do something stupid and market that model in honor of his last race. Double yuke!! My 12 year old could come up with better graphics!! I bet CutGrafix will be selling a lot of normal 1098 Xerox kits because of this. At least someone will be happy. I hope they all sit on the floor collecting dust. Poor Troy, what an insult. Oooops, gotta go... I feel it coming up again!!!! [puke]

I'm with TurkeySlayer on this one...

Yuke!!! That's a Ducati? ??? :o

This is what I keep hearing from different sources is that they have left the Corse inspired line of thinking for the Wall Street line of producing a lesser product thinking this will compete against what, Triumph 1050 Speed Triple, Vmax? Harley? Sorry kids, this doesn't do much for me but then that's just my limited knowledgebase opinion.

Sure, it's a stoopid name. But if it's a good bike, & people flock to Ducatis, is that so wrong?!?

Financially speaking from Ducati's standpoint they have to stay competitive so this is a logical product. I like naked bikes don't get me wrong. If this is a new all together attempt then that's different. They are just being competitive in the marketplace. I just hope it doesn't take away from other areas of the company's (SBK) bikes.

Have fun on Sunday  [thumbsup]
