Depends what street/road, no?
Or maybe where you live? Maybe not in urbania but where I live, it would work.

Sure, and some can handle the quirks (uncomfortable, heat, etc) better than others.

Personally, I'd rather have something other than a SBK for pretty much any street conditions. The choice has zero to do with money.

For Justin (celeb) it wasn't a money issue.  Probably not a commuter bike either........just a cool toy!!   Maybe he doesnt have enough riding time to jump on to a SBK.
That said, I would rather ride a Pani up to StarBucks for that morning java than virtually any other bike out there.

Oh BTW......I would like a nice romp on a RSV4R!!
My people skills are just fine.
It's my tolerance to idiots that needs work.

Seems like all the celebs are riding their Duc from the showroom around town a few times and that's it. God knows Bieber probably hasn't ridden his 848 anymore.

i have to say I'm impressed with Justin Theroux's choose. It looks like it's actually ridden on a regular basis and all the mods are the kinds of mods well all tend to do, subtle for the most part. I really like the black Bipp in black on the front fender.

Remember, when famous people crash without gear, they're fine because of their specialness.





The discussion around these photos is quite entertaining ... thanks. Since there seems to be a lot of speculation going on ... I'll add some more starting with the most likely explanation:

. the subtley modded, 13 year old Monster was bought as is (perhaps, only minutes before the photos were taken) - complete with rizoma/ebay-knock-off/painted-stock-pee-cup/darkest-fluid-in-desparate-need-of-a-change reservoirs
.. his SO bought it for him off craigslist and he is only riding it to stay in the good books
... the bike actually belongs to a member on here - and his SO had to make an indecent proposal to the owner so her man could take it for a spin (discretion being part of the deal)

I would love to have that bike. Makes me miss my 900 badly.
