Natch. How did the boat tow go? You just now crawl out from under?

Good for you. I'm 40 and already consider myself an "ex athlete back in the day"

 

[56599]

I can do that..

 

[56599]

Did you use the back brake?

 

[Fenton]

...NOT!



I haven't seen Borat, but I get the idea.

You're spot on about the high pricing. I'm just whining that these bikes aren't more popular. More demand would mean more offerings from the big4, more competition, etc. Certainly they [email protected] on the street.



The excellent steering leverage, straight up seating and top notch brakes make these the safest bikes you could buy for the street. Far better than those fully faired death traps.

Let's just take a guess at $14ish OTD for either. I know you can wheel and deal but for arguement sake.....The duc looks to be a bit less expensive and the KTM looks to offer a bit more pep.

Here's the kicker, a superhawk motor in a dirt bike with 17" wheels and some quality suspension would eat both of these bikes for $8499.

Ol' KP proves he's a fake every day.



I wasn't on the KP is a phony bandwagon, but now I'm convinced he's someone's puppet.

Yeah... and acts tough while hiding in the bathroom.

Ah ol' Socko is a much more subtle ploy. Not as blatant as the Highwayman or MR. ALLCAPS, he still is following in the same tradition of carefully crafted piles of horse***** designed only to stir the pot.



yes Air Hawk, the check is in the mail.

Re: My theory

F*ckin a, that got me good. I knew there was a reason I read all these comments. I'm still laughing.

Maybe you need to give her the Alec Baldwin treatment. You know, the tolerant Democratic view of things.

 

[obandoj]

I want one !

Simply the looks department. Ducati gets a lot of grief for the 999 and rightfully so. But the vast majority of what they turn out is about as much fun to look at as it is to ride. KTM certainly has the "go" part down but their designers must have had their eyes snatched out at birth.

Put some Renthals and rearsets on a VRod and buddy you got it. Rodney Kingism on a bike.

 

[12er]

Fair enough, just curious to see which one would be the bigger maintanence ho... Ducati may have the edge (as in less expensive to maintain, yeah crazy thought), we'll just have to see.

He's not a phony but a very real slice of entertainment for all MOFO subscribers

It sounds a lot like an anemic Honda Trail 90-



As far as looks go, I like the Duc Multistrada about 400 percent better.
