the old bikes like this look less like a pleasurable ride and more like a rolling castration machine

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

something about the Sei just looks very decadent.   [wine]
You're right and that's a great way to put it.

Is it just me or is the tail section a little too high in the air?

It's plenty high, but the SSS rearstand makes it even more pronounced.

Hmm, a rad bike not in a 999 frame, that's new.  Looks like a 1098 with custom sub frame.

I'm not sure why people create air cooled Ducati race bikes.  Is it because they fit into a certain race class. 

I like the SBK frame air cooled Ducati engine combination even better as a naked bike.

Guzzi Griso SE.  We don't get this version with the tubeless spoked wheels and black frame in the U.S.

I think maybe the masking tape disqualifies that as a true naked.. :D
