Ducati Desmo
 
Can't believe I saw someone riding this bike on Friday in downtown.
Is it someone on this board? Pretty chilly day to ride.

Prob the same guy, scene him before riding it.

No point buying a bike and not riding it...props to him.

My Uncle bought one and has a 999R but I'm pretty sure he's not riding either of them @ the moment. How many r there in town? I thought it wuz pretty darn rare.

theres 1500 of them. of those id say 500 only see track duty, 500 are collectors, and maybe 500 are street ridden, world wide.

it's the second one that I have seen. Saw the first one during the riding season with a small guy riding it. You can not mistake a 1098 and a desmo. Ram air is in the middle, paint is different and the sound is very different.

Just saw the owner of one of the duc's desmo...spoke to him for a bit - really nice guy. He just installed a full exhaust that cost $15,000. HOLY FUCK...sounded like a machine!

15 GRAND!!! HOLY SNAP!!
