I got to sit on, and blip the throttle of, a Desmoseidici yesterday.  Oh. My. God.

The thing is pure evil. It scares me just to look at it, and when you hear it in person (and I only cracked it open to 5K) you want to run to your Momma. Even with all the insurance in the world there's no way I would ever ride that thing. Holy hell.

That sounds like the sort of bike that, at least in my case, the throttle bodies would open in time with my sphincter  Shocked

Well I saw one in person and the sound was deafening.

Apparently if you don't own one they only let really hot chicks sit on it and rev the engine.  Tongue

You must have looked mighty fine that day Micheal  Grin
