I would love to hear that triple at full song on the track.  They're a nice looking bike, but I won't be selling the 848 just yet...

Hi. I’m Troy McClure. You may remember me from such self-help tapes as “Smoke Yourself Thin” and “Get Some Confidence, Stupid!”
NYTimes: "...highlights of his global tour include encounters with Nelson Mandela, an 800-year-old demigod and a dildo collector."

Looks great from the back/side but the front still reminds me of a GSXR

More than what you'd wanna pay for it new and half of that 2nd hand.

I was actually thinking 4 pipes and haveing the 2 split off into Ys so that 4 tips could be seen
just something to toy around with once i start fabing again

Good Question, they are still not oficially released yet in Italy. We probably won't see them until mid next year. I would hope the importer / distributor issues are sorted by then.

They are always going to be more expensive than the Jappers, Usually in line with Duc pricing. Id say probably 20 -25K?
Yet another example of Italian Styling at it's best...

I still haven't heard the sort of power it will produce but I reckon it will suprise alot of people. If they don't produce up around 140hp I will be surprised. Destined to give the litre bikes a real shake down I think.
