Hot Ducati

*Taken from another website..

This happened to a guy a couple of days ago on his 999.

"Travelling home on my 2003 999BP I was stopped by a fellow motorist. He duly informed me that my bike was on fire!

I stopped and got off and discovered that the whole rear end of the bike was actually on fire!

I have no idea what caused the fire. The insurance assessor said it was not electrical so I can only assume fuel vapour!

Basically, the bike needs a new rear subframe, plastics, pillion seat, silencer, heat shield, carbon exhaust cover, indicators, rear brake light, wiring, rear tyre, pillion seat lock etc."

Caption time anyone??

probably some pasta got stuck in there

[fergie]

he may have farted just when the bike backfired?

[Grahameeboy]

At least it can still be ridden home

Why bother putting the fire out...

[johan]

catalytic converters - for a safer environment

[Squiggles]

Not for commuting.

Please remind me why exhausts are located under a seat again?

They catch on fire when you ride them too slow.
