    and not $45k worth even with Marco Lucchinelli's signature? I phoned the guy today and the tricolour F1 is sold.

    Those bikes look like part of that estate sale that we ooohd and aaahd over a while back.
    There is a grey blur, and a green blur. I try to stay on the grey one. - Joey Dunlop

    I think so, he said they had 20 more-or-less exotic Ducatis and they are all sold bar about 3.

    But that is a little disingenuous . They are cool, I don't want people to think I'm pissing on everything , just as I said. They're not magical.

    But someone will pay lots. Just definition of lots will be in the toss.

    I'll likely die having never fulfilled my dream if having an F1

    Here you go Drew. Can't have you hanging around like that chap in Ghost. Demi Moore is sure to complain.

    Body kit, 750 barrels, lick of paint.
    And some squinting.
    Especially around the tank area

    they share the same crankcases pretty much. Ducati upgraded the pantah cases and used them through to the 888 at least, adding a few cubes and water cooling along the way. Take a look next time you'll still see provision for a kickstarter. it wasn't till the 916 they started with a clean sheet of paper and built a new set.

    Yes, entirely my point, but a bit disingenuous (I admit I had to look it up to be sure I was using the word correctly) to claim they are the same bike glorified just because they use some shared beefed up through 47 iterations parts.

    But that's just part of the fun. Like telling a Porch owner he has a stretched VW.

    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    Well the Titan looks like its actually had some money spent on it in a sensible fashion. I'm not a fan of his bracing efforts, and that front disc looks like it would warp with any hard use, but it could be ok. You struggle to get the money you pay back so I don't think he'll break 10.

    The GT is 95% there. Just 95% of it looks fukd.

    Jesus the rechroming bill on one of those would scare Sam Morgan. The crank will need huge dollars I dont care if it turns over.

    On a much cheerier note. This thing is priced to move quick as fuck.
    Gorgeous.
