There hasn't been a spotting of a 1098cc Monster yet.

edit: now that I think about it, Ducati doesn't even make a 1098cc engine... the 1098 is 1099cc.

Guy on the end is gonna feel a bit of a goose.

I can see it's really windy,... just bad luck really. But I'd still feel terrible if my bike was domino number 1.

I didn't know Trailer went to Indy.   :P

Is that F'ing Bulldog's 3-color?  :'(
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

I blame the guy who stuck a parachute (aka bike cover) over his bike, giving the wind a chance to blow it over.  That sucks.

There's some irony right there. Try to care for your bike better, only to have it backfire.


I don't think I've ever owned a motorcycle cover.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I think that one is a 996 engine, but still cool as heck.

Yeah, I couldn't really tell.  I don't know enough about the different engines.  I do know that it looks farkin badass tho and that it must've been a real PITA to stick a 996 in a 696 frame.  I know tons of people here hate the 696 look, but I dig it and if they had an 1100 version of it, I might buy it (but I'd probably still choose a HM instead).

Wow. Talk about sad.  :(

Could be good way to keep dirt ON the bike during NorCal rains [cheeky]
Desmosedici - it's the new Paso (except the bodywork doesn't fit as well)
