Some interesting aspects to the build (exhaust), but overall it just doesn't work for me.  Rumor has it that this was built for Tom Cruise...figures.

What do you guys think?

Each one of the bikes on that link is uglier than the next. What a horrible headlight. To each their own, I guess...

That exhaust is the Termi upgrade that sold for like 10g's..

Tom Cruise already has a Desmo as well as several other bikes. It wouldn't surprise me if he picked this one up too.


Maybe go head to head with Roland Sands' Desmo-tracker for top honors of what NOT to do to a Desmosedici

Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me

Some people call 911..... some people are 911

im not hating or anything, but it looks photoshopped. There are some items, where the lighting doesnt look right. The rear under tail exhaust for example. Look at the pipe, which is under the seat.. which leads to the muffler. Its lit, but it wouldnt be considering where its positioned.  And the ducati monster headlight?  anyone who has enough money to chop up a desmo, wouldnt take a STOCK monster head light and slap it on?  Streetfighter headlight much cooler.

Imnot saying this isnt built. Just saying the photo is sketchy.

I like Redpath's Katana better.

There is only one D16 that I've seen that is more incredible than the stock.

Like an S4RS with two more cylinders and 50% more rev range!
