    Don't mean to detract from the focal point of the wonderful Agusta.
    I have a new 'Blade you can have. Because it's you we'll say $80,000.

    Don't you know that it's not what it does, it's the bragging rights that matter?
    Although how a Japper with radial calipers has more than an $85,000 MV beats me.

    No really.

    I dont know it's cool sort of, my way of thinking would be to buy a brand new GSXR1000K5 and then spend the other $60K on trick bits and i'm quite sure that it would leave the MV in it's wake, (which a standard one would proberly do anyway) and i'm sure a $85,000 GSXR could be just as rare and cool as the Tamburni whatever it is thingee.
    Anyway it should have a better colour scheme and the wheels look shit, reckon the F4 Senna is a way better looking bike. Not worth the money IMO.

    What a heap of crap. A MV with a nice paint job for 85 large. Wake up!

    I'll respray the gixxer 600 and you can buy for a mere $22,900 (same price as a K5 1000)

    Do you really think a rider with a Tamburini is even going to bother wanting to race you on your gixxer.

    Having known a few Ferrari owners (to use them as an analogy) I'd say no.

    Picture you're in your Ferrari at the lights and some sad boy racer pulls up in his supd evo. Revs his engine. What do you do? If you're these guys you look them and and their car up and down and laugh as you watch them roar into the distance. Why? Because they know as you know exactly what you're car is and is capable of and you've got nothing to prove.

    Most definately not! The 85K Tamburini only comes out for show days and the odd short burst up and down the private airport runway!

    I reckon you'd probably cream him on your TL Brucie!

    Sooooo what ya saying is that the Tammie will cream a GSXR1000 right, as they wont even bother racing me cause the bike is soooo much better than a gixxer, oookay then. My bet is that who ever could afford to buy the thing in the first place couldn't ride it for shit anyway and if they could they'd be far to scared to go hard on it at fear of scratching that shitte paint job, let alone the rest of the bike, and if they did beat me it's only cause they are a better rider than me, not because their bike is worth $70 odd thousand more than mine.
    As someone stated the differance between all the litre fours is sweet fuck all and it would take a rider better than me to find what they are.

    And in saying that Ferrari's aint all that i know more than a few "boyracers" that will feed the message in a big way to an over priced Italian cage quite easily, infact my flatmates "stock" twin turbo supra is on par with a 355, another guys GTR would most proberly give a Enzo a good hiding too.

    I'd say it'd be more like the ferrari driver doesn't wanna race the Evo (or whatever) because he's too scared of getting the learn.
