Best sounding bike in the world. Do it.

DO IT!!

Mate, it's sex on wheels and has the performance to back up the looks. If you can afford it why the hell wouldn't you?

Let me put it this way: you can either be Byron Kelleher and marry a pornstar or you can be Joe Schmo renting durrty DVD's. Live the dream man.

It is a nice looking bike.

Are you wanting us to convince you or have you crossed that line already?

Your call depending on your budget. It is quite a yummy looking beast that is for sure. Nice attention to detail when you really get up close.

Get the MV if you have the money, then buy a GN to ride cause you won't let the MV leave the gargre I bet

Coyote, don't worry man, i will ride it!

limbimtimwim, i was going to supercharge the TEN but was (thankfully) talked out of it by my mechanic

Toaster, i haven't crossed the line.... convince me!!

Bags it if you make way for the MV

Can't afford it but will find a way. Banks like giving loans to just turned 18 people

Get it fruitcake, it's a great bike. The fueling (snappy throttle) will take some getting used to but once you do, you'll never look back. It will make all the jap litre bikes feel like cruisers and look like fat ugly chicks in mini skirts.

Yeah I think in Kiwifruits mind it already in the garage! I've seen them in the flesh and i've seen them being thrashed and yeah it a nice bike alright but it really depends on where your heads at, I dont see how they are 14 or 15 grand better than the ZX10, R1, GRX-R and so on. Yes I hav'nt ridden one but at this point if I won lotto I would'nt bother but if they are your passion then by all means, thats what choices are for.
I'd like a R1, ZX14, SuperDuke R and a '08 V-Max in my garage.....damn....i'm off to buy me some more tickets....

Enjoy the MV if you get one Kiwifruit, i'm sure you will.
