So for those of you who've not seen it yet...

In the movie "Yes Man", there is a guy on a Hypermo that does some nifty things with it.  Go Ducati.

i was watching an episode of superbikes (i know...i know...) recently and britton borrowed a hypermotard for the day to do some photoshoot, and was attempting to do a wheelie on a long bridge....and poof...smoke and oil, and the shoot was over.  not exactly great press for ducati.  and they didn't really elaborate as to what happened.  it was a weird section to the show; britton made it sound like he had never touched a duc in his life, nor did he know anything about them.  though that could have just been for the benefit of viewers (squids) of the show.

I saw it too, the explanation was the near vertical position caused oil to pack up into the breather (behind the vertical cyilinder) and get sucked into the intake, as well as dump on the ground and rear tire.  A breather mod/relocate is probably in order for those mile long wheelies - they did not show much love for the bike.
