This truly is a COOL Italian bike.



This setting would be more befitting of a Beak Sporting Multi-Strada. Or as the mechanic at my Duck Shop calls it "The Sex Beak"

Vyrus at our club race/track day  [drool] (don't know what engine, but AFAIK you can use 'anything')



That front brake placement seem weird to me...not too much structural rigidity.  But it sure looks fast!

Because of how/where the forces go, straight into a rigid 'swingarm', I don't think that's a big problem compared to what it would be on a conventional fork...

I like the exhaust setup a LOT but the Frankenstein bevel setup is ...  disconcerting.

That NCR dry clutch setup runs around $5 grand.  that rear suspension is sick.

"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.
