1098 Ducati

[imdying]

Given that Suzuki haven't release the performance or power figure on the new GSXR1000 yet, and it's not out till April, they've got plenty of time to ensure that the GSXR1000 tears the 1098 a new arsehole. For half the price. Without breaking down or costing $500 a service. And can be insured.

I would piss off mate, but I've nowhere else to go....been told to piss off from everywhere by everyone. This is my last hope.

Blackbirds aren't capable of rape, they're flacid.

YOU MEAN BLACKBIRD LIKE TYRA BANKS OR RIHANNA

thats a great idea, everyone should just buy a GSXR thou, that way you will be the only one with a GSXR thou. Its not like every second bike you see is...... a GSXR thou now is it? Who gives a shit about which has more horsepower, if you want to have the most hp and the fastest bike, get a Busa or ZX14 and stick a turbo on it. GSXR's are common as a Ford Falcon or Honda Civic.
Ducati's used to have reliability issues, pre 1997 , and with Suzuki's latest run, I don't think I am the only one to notice how many gremlins the past few generation of GSXR's have had, not exactly bulletproof are they?
Who knows, it might be nice to have a bit of diversity on NZ roads.

Not quite...but similar as in none of them have balls.

it's not a fuckin prada handbag, it's a sportsbike.

[Crasherfromwayback]

it's not a fuckin prada handbag, it's a sportsbike.

This man knows the difference! Why the fuck would you buy a 'cutting edge sportsbike' unless you want the best? Want something different? Buy a Ducati 'Indiana'. You wanna ride bikes at the top of the scale?...makes sense to ride the best...especially when it's way more affordable than an inferior product.

[Postie]

it's a sportsbike.

I'm not disputing that.
Its just like listening to a demented COCKatoo saying "get a gixxer, get a gixxer" every thread about a new bike, your guaranteed someone will turn that fucking parrot back on. I'm not saying gixxers are crap or slow by anymeans, its just boring to see the same bike around every corner (normally in a ditch).
I know a few riders that can get around a track, and pretty much any road in NZ faster on a 600 then most people can get around on a thou, so numbers on paper about who has the biggest balls and HP means fuck all.

I think you care too much about what other people think...

Unless I missed a thread The MV is the fastest proven production litre bike on the market.

Personally I with you Postie, diversity is a great thing. I'd definitely add one to my aircraft hanger full of bikes.

As for the GixxerFanBoyBrigade, they've been here longer than I have (although some of the names have changed along the way). Just think of them like rebelious teens who are all wearing the pants around their ankles and caps on backwards in order to be inderviduals like the rest of their "friends".

Seriously each to their own. I just don't see the point in fanboyism. Rather rate comparitive products on their merits compared to my requirements.

Anyway at this stage any litre bike is 750cc's too much bike for me.

Fastest? All sports bikes are restricted to 187 MPH...

Rate 'comparitive' products on their 'merits' compared to my requirements??

If your 'requirements' are wanting to spend more for an inferior product simply for the reason of being 'different'.....good for you.

"Any litre bike is 750cc's too much bike for me"

Are you saying that you have no experience with litre bikes?
Are you a good enough rider to 'push' a 'litre bike'?

Modern litre bikes are all too good for most riders.

But if you wanna have wank value...why not have the biggest cock?

i do have the biggest cock.

I also have a gixxer cos I'm not a dumb cunt that likes to waste money.

[Crasherfromwayback]

i do have the biggest cock.

Says who?....I don't want to have to get mine out in front of all these nice people....

[The_Dover]

don't worry about them, they're too busy wanking in their prada handbags..

If you get time, have a read through this link here and see if you still don't think that you would be riding the best!!


The 1098 has a new engine with less weight and more power, and using motoGP derived technology in the induction and throttle body. Magnesium cylinder heads.
Öhlins fully adjustable rear shock(height, spring and damper), 43mm Öhlins with low friction Titanium Nitride sliders forks, Brembo Monobloc callipers with 330m lightweight disks, forged-aluminium wheels and a new chassis, swing arm, tricked out cooling system, its in more detail in that link.

The S comes with 3 CD's for your laptop to programme and analyse the bike and rider performance.

So is all round Öhlins and Brembo brakes considered an inferior product???

I don't really give a shit what you still think about the bike, but if your gonna make a comment, at least have some idea what your talking about before posting it.

[The_Dover]

fuck Postie, you're a marketing mans dream.

does it have airbags too?
