I've always liked how the Stratoliner looks but I'm in to the retro thing. I don't understand why they don't sell, but for whatever reason they can be found pretty cheap. If I ever get a second bike...

I would definitely get this over a Ruckus for less than a $400 increase. That said I'm not in the market for either one though.

If it was on the Autobahn (my guess given the speed) faster drivers get seriously pissed if slower people don't move right. Still, its a pretty big gamble to assume someone who pissed you off by not...

What's the problem with it? I don't think they did it with the 1098/1198 engines, but Ducati has put higher output liquid cooled Superbike motors in Monsters before (S4, S4RS).

Overall I like it, I think the front end is perfect. The one thing that jumps out at me is the geometry in the rear strikes me as off. It looks like the back tire is pretty far out there rather than...

To a point weight is a benefit in the quarter mile, not a penalty. A 2012 Hayabusa or ZX-14R, each 30+ lbs heavier than even the ZX-11, are significantly quicker than any of the bikes you mentioned...

To me the Paso looks too stereotypically 80s. I particularly dislike the rectangle headlight that looks to have been pulled from the parts bin of any domestic truck or van from the 80s.

So do I, my confusion is the article is saying people intentionally time downshifts so the engine will be beyond redline. I've never heard of that before.

I don't think I've ever even seen one so I have nothing knowledgeable to offer. Looks like a cross between a scooter and half a VFR. If you aren't interested in sporting pretensions that could be a...

I think it would be perfect for the cafe racer treatment if the wheels didn't suck. They look like they were leftover from mid 80s Magna production. This bike needs spokes.

I like the Bandits. There is something to be said for a simple bike that makes "adequate" power and doesn't require two hours of removing stuff just to reach the oil filter.

I don't like the droopy nose to the sidecar.



That is about right, too bad it probably cost more than a fleet of Ducatis.

Damn, that is tempting. Great bike, great price. I know it won't be, but if it is still around in a few months I may be able to do something. Good luck with the sale.

From what I have seen with State Farm you want to get another policy with them first, then the multi policy discount can be massive, like 90%+.
