That's an awesome bike. No doubt you'll be aquiring a cleaning and polsihing fetish as well.

good choice , i tock one from christchurch to the greymouth street races last year , i never realy bonded with it, as yes it was fast but verry compact and was a scarry thing in the wet

(more a mind over mater thing ) was scared of droping it , it think. no being my bike in all ,

enjoy

It is a good looking bike bro, thats for sure.

But....... I just can't fathom 27k for a bike that has design fault's, has bits flying off at speed and runs hot.

Each to his own eh?

Enjoy!

Suuuuuuure!

The green one was cool, but if the red one makes your heart feeel funny...its a personal thing.

Very nice mate

Red bikes are almost as fast as black ones.

**marioc** · 21st November 2007, 09:12

Most definately a piece of modern art!

**NZsarge** · 21st November 2007, 09:53

If you like it mate then thats all that counts is'nt it? It sounds like you do so good on ya and enjoy.

I'm a Jap bike man myself and always will be but that said it did'nt take long for a SuperDuke to get under my skin but I think they are over priced too.
Best of luck with it and I hope thats the end of your troubles with it, i'm sure it will be.

I have a red bike and a black bike, and I can honestly say that the red bike is faster.

Nice bike Kiwifruit, even with it's flaws you've still made a lot of men jealous.

Lesseee.... I've had three red bikes (one of which was red'n'black), one silver one, a black one, a blue one, a red/white/blue one, and ridden numerous other bikes of all colours.
Of the bikes I've owned, the blue one is the fastest/bestest, and the slowest of all of them was a red one.
Of the bikes I've ridden, the slowest was blue, and the fastest was yellow.

Sofarkinwot.

The MV is a gorgeous bike, Kiwidude (congratulations!), but I don't think I'd want to own one as my only bike.

Have you thought about getting them HPC coated? Would look much nicer than heat wrap with much the same effect.

Or if you wanted them to be really cool, you could buy some titanium headers
