First ride of M1100

[Raux]

great review, thanks for posting that!  still prefer the style of my old M1000 but with all the functional improvments and the SSS I am very tempted for this new bike... 

Still looking forward to seeing a pic of the S version in white.  If anyone has a pic, please post it!

if you look at the 1100s you can see the white and red versions.

Cool thanks, last time I looked on that site, the white one wasn't there yet.  I bet it would look cool with the gold wheels too that match the forks!

Lets hope for a Tricolore next year and the end of the line 
Not even Lara Croft is using a Ducati in the new game anymore...why ? i ask why ?

No front fork reflector surgery necessary!?

That's a U.S. requirement....

Click the photo shown on the right and view it at actual size, not scaled. It shows quite a lot of detail of the bike.

Very cool, that photo is really high res!

Is it just me or is the brake line sticking way out like a loop just waiting to get caught on something?

Oh and the rider is crossed up

It looks as if the suspension is compressed, possibly due the cornering forces  thats why the brake line is bulging.

Here are some more photos and some vids. from Raptors and Rockets
