Very nice, the Ducati stealership near me has one of those in the showroom. Owner of the place claims to take it out, but seeing him I doubt it lol

Could this be more exclusive.

Can you guess what it is?



I'll give you a clue!

These little boxes can tell me everything I want to know. And, AND the internet is never wrong. We all know that.

I gotta say kenmoore, the more I look at that Bimota the more I think it's very long in the tooth! While I admire the machine for its craftsmanship, its looks are no longer appealing. If it was an 851 or 888, my eye's would be poppin'.

I've really got an itch for a Duc. The reliability scares me. I want a multi soo bad.

I've never cared for the square headlights of the air cooled ducs (851/888/900)... Makes them look 20yrs older than they are.... Kinda like it belongs in 1986's Top Gun...

They look amazing from the side though!

Have to agree with the square headlight analogy.

Butt ugly!

Yes,

It is an X75 Hurricane and this is what was found under the seat!



Interesting!

For $48,000, you think he'd have pictures that were fitting. I wouldn't post that crappy of pictures for my $2,500 VTR unless I was trying to hide something.

Nick, that bike doesn't need much more than that pic. If you got 48K and are interested, you're gonna go see it in the flesh.

Uh, yes you do. Sounds like you have spent very little time on Craigslist, because you would otherwise know that poor pictures are often time a tool to hide stuff. Including on expensive vehicles.

Poor photos is a favorite trick of some Ebay scumbag sellers too.
