    Kill me fast

    WTF??

    "Gorgeous machines so quick you wouldn't feel a thing

    It's a given - Ducati makes some of the most gorgeous two-wheeled machines on the planet.

    And now Danish artist Kristian van Hornsleth has responded to the lines of the company's 1098 and 1198 bruisers by applying a special paint scheme to 10 of the machines.

    Hornsleth calls the series "Kill Me Fast," perhaps appropriate for bikes that can rip off the zero to 100km/h dash in two seconds.

    He was drawn to the Ducatis when he asked a salesman if it was dangerous to ride such a fast bike and the salesman said you don't feel anything when you hit a wall going 320km/h."

    Just wait to see how you respond if someone scratches it in a carpark... or it falls over...

    Looks like a rainbow, a tagger and a Ducati had a threesome and produced this love-child.

    Nah, it's like the vomit you get straight after a pizza.
    Hmmm, Ducati = Italian ... Pizza = Italian. The defense rests your honour.

    I could let my 4 yo son loose with paint and get a similar result. I like 1098s, but not these ones.

    Missed the wall and crashed right into the paint shop.

    (And the result is painfull).
    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.
