Not sure what desmodromic controls are.  My Monster has the regular levers, twist grip, etc. 

How do you know the backstory on this?  The ad does offer test rides (with deposit).

I take it that the bike went down after these pix were taken.

I took it for a test drive last summer and the damage was already done.
When I mentioned the attempts at hiding the damages the seller acted like he had no knowledge of it. The whole "gee, that's news to me !" thing.
They re-post it every couple of weeks

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

With the turning radius, I doubt Rhino can get that thing out of his driveway without a couple 3-point turns.

It was great meeting "The Dude" at long last.   She brought us some epic beer.

But it makes up for the tight hairpin and driveway issues by being very stable in a straight line. ;) ;D Probably needs a hinge in the middle like one of those articulated buses.

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

if by "dream" you mean a proctoscopy accompanied by LSD, then yes..

"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.
