the old bikes like this look less like a pleasurable ride and more like a rolling castration machine

something about the Sei just looks very decadent.   Vino!
You're right and that's a great way to put it.

Is it just me or is the tail section a little too high in the air?

It's plenty high, but the SSS rearstand makes it even more pronounced.

Hmm, a rad bike not in a 999 frame, that's new.  Looks like a 1098 with custom sub frame.

I'm not sure why people create air cooled Ducati race bikes.  Is it because they fit into a certain race class. 

I like the SBK frame air cooled Ducati engine combination even better as a naked bike.

Guzzi Griso SE.  We don't get this version with the tubeless spoked wheels and black frame in the U.S.

I think maybe the masking tape disqualifies that as a true naked.. Cheesy
