Ducati 996 eh? at least you have taste. I have a likke itty bitty model of one here and its dead flash

Id say they are great for outrunning police too seeing as those pathetic 'speedy' cops are only 650/750

Me... I'm going to trade in my 125cc Intruder and get me some 650cc Drag Star classic machinery Hooyah!

And not just a 996, but a 996R, and for only 26,000 Euro pre tax.

It's a beautiful machine unmistakable sound from the exhausts as it blows past ye

I heard bout a guy gettin done for doin 110mph on one of those on the limerick by pass. The gardai tat clocked him radioed ahead to the next junction but they were too slow caught hi when he got to the next town and stopped at the traffic lights, lost his bike licence for life .

i have a nice little Virago 125, gonna trade up to a 250 when I'm 21 so i dont get completely screwed on insurance :rolleyes:

Very nice, but I would get rid of the fairing straight away and stick a big fat Metzeler on the back!

ahh u couldnt modify it, that would be like drawing a moustache on the mona lisa.

reminds me of another board I visited recently where one user commented that he doesnt like Harley Davidson custom bikes because of the 'phut-phut' noise the engine makes. I didnt want to make him feel stupid by saying that thats the whole bloody point of buying a custom bike, because of the fantastic bass grunt you get from the engine. Ooooh mercy, I need to go and start up my bike *Lol*

Fastest? Depends if you're talking about a race-built bike or a production model. For most expensive without going for something ridiculous, something classic perhaps, maybe an MV.

zx12r I'd say. one of them was the first limited to 300kmph machine, after which bike manufacturers agreed to dial it back from 11.
