    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    They've made so many 'specials', surely they devalue the other specials, and it is getting kinda tedious.

    However, it is sex and I want one.

    Anyone that buys a 'limited edition' italian vehicle knows exactly what they are getting... ie - if they sell a lot of them it won't be that limited, it's really just a paint job on an old model, it won't be worth much more than the standard one in 5 years, it will cost a motza to insure, there won't be any parts, it will devalue if you use it etc etc.

    Fun way to spend money though.....

    Actually, that one seems to be quite similar to the Mamba they made. That one seems to have lots of carbon fibre and the varible length intake tracts.

    So really it's another Mamba, which was a parts bin special

    I guess MVA want to do superbikes...?

    Probably sex WITH the bike.

    I would've thought they'd make more road going specials though rather than race ones. Haven't the last couple (other than the Tamborini) been race bikes only??

    Website seems to indicate two versions, a 'strada/road' and a 'pista/track'.

    Ah so there is. The problem with skimming web pages while at work without anyone seeing.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    God thats nice. If only I had the money and celebrity status
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Says it all really. Can you get it without that stylised greyhound on the side?

    Take a close look. The owner's name is engraved on the headstock - done at the factory! that's better than a personalised plate!
