Those R sweet bikes. Doing very well on the track as well.
I have a 2003 1150R Roxster. Does that bike of yours pull to the right when U blip the throttle while sitting in neutral ? I dont notice it while rfiding,,, but it is a unique & odd feeling when your not familiar with the bike. 2 different bikes I know,,, mine makes about 90 HP,, & that HP2 makes 130ish.

Hurry up & break that bike in,, I wanna hear more  :)

Oh,, any chance of translateing that Dyno to english?

I saw that bike at a bike show in Canada.  Pics don't do it justice.  It is an amazing machine.

Good for you.

It's beautiful. I'd all but kill to have one.

I grew up on beemers and between 1975 and 1980 outran everything with wheels (to include all Ducatis) with a bored out hot rod R90S.

You must feel like a God on the thing. Can't wait to hear about performance once she's all broken in. [thumbsup]

If I had the dough I'd have one. But then if pigs had wings they might fly too. ;D

Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

Congrats, I was looking everywhere for ideas for my second bike. Went to BMW and wasn't too impressed with what they had. They way the bikes looked anyway. Wonder if I can find a dealer that would have this thing in to see it in person. I am thinking of the MV Agusta but I sat on it at the bike show and its the most uncomfortable thing I have ever set on but is sure is purdy.

wow man, congrats.  i can't say i like it more than your S4Rs, but she definitely "jumps" out at you with all that blue!  you'll have to post up with some riding feedback soon.

Thanks folks.. I´ve just opened up the toolkit this morning, there is no space for anything on this bike, no compartments at all. It comes with a waist bag and the most complete toolkit i´ve ever seen. Also a weird thing - the spare key is plastic and has the immobilizer integrated!!!





It´s bank holiday here today but the girls won´t give me 5 mins to look at it today. Maybe I´ll escape later on today or after the weekend. I can´t ride it this weekend either due to a track day weekend up north (first time as a track monitor!).

If you ever get a chance to ride one, DO IT!

Exactly, it´s got a very light flywheel compared to other boxer models and it´s even more exaggerated. It´s like someone´s trying to pull the bike to the floor.

I´ll translate the dyno results when I´m at home later today.

LA - you KNOW you want one.  [evil]

Cheers

so at stop lights, can you leave your feet on the pegs and lean the bike to the left while keeping on the throttle to keep the bike upright?

yeah... and it flies too

If i were on the board at Ducati I'd definitely be keeping my eye on BMW and KTM. Both of those companies have a bright future imo. WSBK next year will be fun to watch.

Nice bike Nutts. I checked one out at a bike show and it seems to be a very high quality bike.
