NORTY: What I meant was how it moved, the amount of power it has, and how it would make anybody scream on the INSIDE riding on it.
YOOOOOWWWWZZZA!

Hi!
Hugs g/f!
Solorider: Great to see another woman rider. 'Ride Free. Not Free Ride.' I have that teeshirt and really like it.
lol.
Best,

I have both my dream bikes. Just bought the second Saturday. 05 Heritage Classic. Sure will be nice for those long rides, even tho my 99 fxdx has done well in that department too. I have over 70K on her. Ride Safe, Ride Free.
thunder...nice bike, I have always liked the honda shadows, spirt or aero. But lately I've been drawn to a heritage softail...maybe one day I'll trade in my little Honda for a Harley!

this is from
We strapped on our Racelogic Vbox data logger to measure just how fast the 999R is, and we came away impressed and pumped with adrenaline. It ran a best of 10.35 seconds at 142 mph in the standing-start quarter-mile. CBR1000RR owners suffer the ignominy of not only having a four-cylinder bike that weighs more than a traditionally heavier Twin, but also having a bike that runs a slower quarter (10.43 secs). On the Duc, 60 mph comes up in just 2.98 seconds thanks to bountiful torque and a cooperative clutch. Keep it roaring for another 25 seconds or so and it will max out at 167 mph (a figure that jumps to 174 mph if corrected for barometric conditions), even though its digital speedometer ceases to display any reading after indicating up to 174 mph.
For such a quiet, private kind of guy, you have one he!l of a sense of humor!
Ok, sounds like your bike is a screamer. I am going to have to look it up on the net to learn more about it. My only knowledge of ducatis is some of their awesome racing history. I've mostly seen older ones in real life. Now I will be keeping an eye out so I can get more familiar with them.
Would love to hear your new toy. Quite a 'toy'. From what you said it certainly seems like it is in a class all it's own.
Bob, please share with us about your new toy. I have a question: Why is the back fender so high off the tire on the Ducati?
actualy there is no rear fender that is the exhust and muffler the performance is pretty good they say 0 to 60 is 2.3 seconds plus or minus .5 seconds i ges that depends on how fast you can open the throdel whitch is not easy the front tire dose not like to stay on the ground even coming out of a turn the only differance between my bike and the race bike lights, mirrors, air filters,ecu, exhust and the race bike has cheaper body work
