I'm in love with the Streetfighter

[Pip]

The Streetfighter is great if you want a bike created to make you dumberer.  Every time I ride one, my IQ decreases by around 100 points.  And that's starting with a baseline that barely breaks 70.  The throttle goes to 11.  The brakes make my rectum shoot out my nose.  The suspension is like sex with a threesome with Heidi Klum & Heidi Klum.  Overall, it's awesome.  And I still wouldn't trade my monster for one.

Can you write a book just describing stuff? PLEASE???

I absolutly love my SF - Loved my monster as much but this thing is like new love!!

i like the streetfighter a lot.  didn't like the headlight at first, but i'm ok with it now.  i may have to replace the monster with a streetfighter in the near future.   [moto]

I'm seriously considering this my next bike after seeing the under tail exhaust.  I'll try like hell not to sell the S4R but if I have to I will, although right now the damn insurance on that thing is stupid expensive.

I sold my S2R1000 to buy a streetfighter. My monster was very special to me, in fact I said on several occasions that it was the one bike I never wanted to be without.

originally my plan was to trade up to an S4RS but when the SF was introduced I decided to wait and take a look. I ended up buying on the day the SF was introduced in the US. I've never looked back or had a second thought, the bike is absolutly phenomenal.

Like any new Ducati there are a few things to change and personalize, and fueling with E3 restrictions is too lean on the low end, but once the bike is tweaked there's nothing like it.

I've done a lot of work to mine but I'm still waiting for an exhaust system that I like. I love the looks and especially the headlight, when you see it in-person the bike just looks bad@ss! but to ride it is different for everybody, it takes a little time to understand it and a little more time to appreciate it's capability.

I think I'm in for the long haul with this bike, I can't imagine anything that is more fun. (I'm an adrenalin junky, and the streetfighter pumps adrenalin in buckets!)

I say hell yes trade your monster, go for it! You just can't understand how amazing the SF is till you've lived with it for a while.
And personally, I see the SF as an evolutionary step for the monster series

Test rode one a couple of weekends ago. Great bike, but not so good in the boring Florida roads. I need something comfortable enough for long distances.

Comfort is a personal thing, I'm a lot more comfortable on the Streetfighter than I was on my Monster.

did you change the seat?  I felt my nads pressing to hard against the tank and I'm still using them so I'll need them in top shape.

I would love this bike if I lived back in North Georgia.

Excuse my ignorance but is the red frame on the SF a custom jobbie ?
I haven't seen it on the Ducati web page
If it is a custom what would the cost of stripping the bike down
and building back up + re spray?
Me likey a lot

I love it, but I'm in a spot many of us find ourselves....   bike customized and set up just for me...versus new stock bike.   Every time I go test ride something I am most happy with my own scoot when I get home.    Of course if I did the things to the streetfighter I did to my bike then I'd have my bike turned up to 11 instead of 8.5.

But I think for now I'll keep modifying the rider versus the bike.


Motowheels' streetfighter project has me drooling though.

the S4R decreases my IQ 50 points BUT i love to have the Streetfighter though ......

Yes, its custom. I did the work myself.    (my wife helped a lot)

I've also changed the bars, the seat, the footpegs and a whole bunch of other things. (still trying to decide on an exhaust)
I did a lot of the same kind of mods with my monster too. (but not a frame paint)

Cool!  Keep feeding my SF monster growing inside me.
