Ferrari motorcycle

[slob]

Funny you should mention Ferrari and motorbikes. In the mid 1990’s MV Agusta re-entered the motorcycle market under guidance of Cagiva. Designer for Cagiva, Tamburini (once part owner of Bimota) designed a beautiful new MV Agusta on a 749cc engine (which had been designed with the help of Ferrari). The new F4 750 was a stunner and handling, styling and great speed made it very desirable.

You heard it here first.

Yep, Tamburini is the 'Ta' in Bimota. Also, weren't the engines for the Ducati MotoGP Desmoseidici developed by Ferrari too?

Nice cut and paste from your owners manual.

At least it doesn't look like this...

At least it doesn't look like this...

That's straight out of my manual.
Translated it means, "aren't you glad you didn't drop $30 odd grand on a bike just so Sarge won't hit you?"

Nahh! I'm asian, I know these things... it says, "When stupid white man bring in for translation, tell him bike fast, bike good, he stupid, pay five hundred dollar. Thank you bery much, bye bye."

And Dover put the "Bi" into Bimota.

And he put the 'crash' into Gixxer.

back to the topic at hand............


I think the bike is cool.

Id have to get a Davida helmet and a stick on Magnum PI 'tache as well as some chest hair though.

I like pointless stuff like this, and the beemer engined thing, and the V12 Kawasaki, and the 48cylinder Kawasaki two stroke.... its cool that people have a vision and the skills to make it real. I dont see it as any different or any less rideable than some of the more bizarro choppers that people build. I like those too.

That's being a bit faggy isn't it?

[HenryDorsetCase]

..I tried.....

[UrbanMyth]

hmm wonder how it sounds..

Picture says it all really, a Ferrari 308 motor with a couple of wheels bolted fore and aft, a seat and some handle bars. Why? if you have to ask...

You'd think, if you were going to go to the effort of building a bike around something like a Ferrari engine you'd at least make some effort in making it look nice with smoth curves on the tank, fairings etc. If I were a Ferrari designer I'd have a word to the local Capo about sending da boyz around to sort out the schmuck that built that ugly monstrosity.

The red bike with the Ferrari badge on page one didn't look much better.
