@eljavier66 I am 6'3" and I own fz6 (first bike) and I don't look bad. I only weigh 190 pounds. If you're fat mofo than you might wanna get suzuki 750,yamaha FZ8 or suzuki gsxf650 (bandit) . I do not recommend 1000cc for a first bike.
Dude gets to put 7000+ miles on a bike and sends it back, well shit fire I'll test them bikes and be gladly to send'em back at 7000 miles in return for a new one
I think if you dont ride like a dick and you are a confident rider, then I don't see why you would have a problem. Just take it easy until you get used to it.
I owned a hyosung 250 and im going up 2 a big bike... i dont wana waste money on slowly making my way to one of these Streetfighters... would it be dumb of me 2 go right to this?? im not a stupid rider.. i play it safe
HI guys....Michael says he used RACETEC K3....but just so you know most of the time if you change the original tyre CORSA 3 to any 190/55....after the tyre warm up it rub the swingarm....if you do not believe me....well....go to streetfighterforum.it and look for the problem. We have officially complained to DUCATI. But what the bizarre thing is that in USA and UK....this has not happened yet....if anyone have the same issue....please go on the forum join us on the protest....
got the S, tergis, opened the timing belt covers,clutch & BST black mambas arrive today, video coming soon .......when god looked down & saw a Ducati..... he knew he'd done good
Fantastic bike, saw the S version locally quite recently. However, anyone who's willing to pay THAT amount of money for a pair of louder cans simply isn't whacking off enough. Straight through is straight through, nomatter what name is on the outer sleeves.
Hey Micheal ist that the s model version. I enjoyed riding one of these but it gave me back ache. I was throttling it too hard because of the addictive torque. I've not rode the standard model but the s model handles amazing, so flickable and easy to ride. I wonder if he will hate parting with it.
What happened @ the 2:45 to 2:47 mark on the video ? Did his foot slip off the left peg because it was damp or because off the exhaust protruding out as I have read in a popular Bike magazine ?
Why are people saying this bike is so expensive. It's about the same price as a GSXR-1000. $15 000 is not that much, it's half the price of a decent car. Lease it.
Great review...couldn't wait for part 2 and got one black S just after i saw your first part!! great job...thanks for this great review, the bike is just as you described it!!
Job description: .... You will get a brand new bike just to put as much miles on it as you possibly can... do trackdays......and talk/write about it a bit.......
wow, not a half bad review there michael. keep up the good work. lovely bike but there is no 2 ways about it. your paying for the badge at the end of the day, and for me £14,000 is too steep.
@SOAMC33 In my experience Guidance councilors never know what they're talking about. They know the safest jobs for people in general to do but know nothing about whats best for each kid personally.
He makes the best reviews!
