Can someone lend me $25,000?

I saw this in Red Baron (I didn't buy anything in there I promise! I just looked at the toys!) and I need to possess it.

ugliest rear mud guard ever?

There is this guy in Nigeria who has got millions to give away...

Yes, but it's an easy fix for this otherwise-gorgeous machine.

Forget about the OP, give the money to me. I want that bike!

It's OK when you look close at it ... it's not all plastic, the number plate holder and indicators are bolted to a big chunk of alloy which is joined to the swing arm.
Same with the tail tidy area, it's not black plastic it's nice chunky expensive feeling metal :-)
I was getting quite excited when looking at the lovely engineering work on the bike ;-)

Though I think the only girlfriend you could have on the back of this would be a teeny little asian girlie, bigger girls would fall off unless you put a tow bar on the pillion seat for them to sit on ....

Those wheels would look good on my Speedie.....

Imagine going through road works with that fender and rear mud guard.

Looks nice, don't how practical though

Fuck me, I thought the standard 800 brutale looked good, it's the ugly sister now.

It's not quite a "give away" I had to chuck him 1000$ to bribe the authorities & it's another 2000$ in shipping but pretty cheap considering, now just waiting for mine to show up

It's very similar to the Brutale which would be a bit more practical, hasn't got the chopped-off arse. Although I wouldn't normally expect "MV" and "practical" to appear in the same sentence.

The formerly (in)famous Kevin Mitnick has been contacted by a scammer he has traced to Jamaica. He has told the guy that he's quit his job and ordered a Ferrari, now he needs the money in a hurry. He says his new friend is getting excited.

Nice. But the rear end is.... fugley, shame a plate has to go on it. Also did you notice it has pillion pegs, they would have to go.
Not sure how long a rear tyre would last.

I hadn't noticed. Not sure how long the pillion would last - was is that a 5cm square pillion seat?

It's not clear to me exactly where the pillion would sit on this bike....

Nonetheless, I'd own one.
