IMO, the sad part was that the Del Amo bike was a vinyl sticker and not even paint .....  ???

This will seem a bit harsh...

I'm, serious...

I for one......

am still unemployed..... so in regards to this, my care level is at 0.






in the event of my untimely hiring


care level will still be at 0


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

I honestly thought DucPond would run away with it.  They put the most into their bike, and it one of the best of the new monsters I have seen!

Congrats on a well executed project DucPond you had my vote 8)

And though I'm surprised the Beverly Hills entry did not smoke the competition, the "winning" bike from Del Amo is about as exciting as watching snow melt.  BORING!

well here in the north country watching snow melt is lots of fun the sooner that shits gone the faster i can get out and  [moto]. but either way that bike wasnt very cool, there wasnt even  [bacon] on it
just another fool playing with boats and bikes

i'm confused (as if that's a suprise ;D )

ducati marketing comes up with a lame advertising gimmick.

a dealer only "dress up a monster" contest.

the dealers are given a limited time-frame in which to work.  and it shows

those that joined... took the path of least resistance, no cutting, no chopping, no tweaking, no special custom parts.

change the color, change the exhaust  [roll]   lame.


lame marketing plan, lame follow through, lame results.

the worst thing they did was name it a monster challenge competition because I think it  conjures up memories of what DNA dropped.

it was never meant for us. it was meant for those who don't know, and even if it were meant for us...  it's nothing more than a failed publicity stunt.


no need for the hate.

IMO

if del amo won because they  stacked the deck........ every other dealer out there had the same opportunity to do the very same thing (at worst), and at best, had the same opportunity to put together a bike that wowed the shit out of everybody.
