that bike is sweet, but the deep seat well does not do it for me
Nor that origami transformerish front light /fairing.
I was at Fays over lunch. I'dthat RSV4 in a bad way.

Wow, clown bike is right, lol.
I like the '12 MV Agusta F4 over the Aprilia RSV4, if we're talking looks alone.

starting
at around $33000
Same here! That RC8 is just so amazing looking, I really have to wonder if it was made out of the same stuff as the F117A if it would also avoid speeding ticketsI've always been more of a Lamborghini kind of guy anyways
While I love that the exhaust is on the bottom of the bikes, I think the partially exposed exhaust of the Ducati is ruining it for me. It almost seems unfinished in a way. I guess I expect the most highly polished product from Ducati, ala 1098 and 1198. The bike is nothing short of amazing, just almost seems unfinished to me in the looks dept.
I'm still trying to figure out what to cut out to get an S1000rr, let alone some sort of Ducati!
If you're serious, be sure to read at least the latest few pages of this thread, if you haven't already:

Good real-world info on the conrod bolt recall effecting many/all of the 2012's.

$33k?... I'd rather put that down to buy a house lol
Yeah, nice bike but complete overkill paying for name/badge. I'd rather spend $15k on a near-new 1198. I have better uses for the extra $18k, ha!

Why would people who don't like it get on the short list for one?

Wow. That's right... we're ALL the same. Sorry joe, never met you, but I guess now I'll just have to live up to your stereotype of "Ducati People." Oooh! The stress! The anxiety!
Tell me Joe, fill in the gaps on how I am, seeing as I am one of "THEM."
LOL!

You realize you're fulfilling Joe's stereotype right now, right?

Pretty sure that I don't, though...just sayin.
True, but maybe you're the exception.

You going to buy him for me too?Bahahahahaha! Now THAT I WOULD buy you!!! Oh the stories for years to come....
I remember you trying to get an old 2 stroke to run at SCR, I think you just might be a glutton for punishment. Hopefully that 'Priler will kick that trend
I think Jesus would have better taste than to ride a cookie cutter bike, after all he has connections and doesn't need to settle.
Holy crap, Ducati has a new bike???
