| Re: oh my...motogp for the street. I'll gladly be the first to say that bike does absolutely nothing for me. I've always found the Duc to be the ugliest bike on the GP grid, and this one is no different. Looks like a flabby fish.
I'm sure it has great performance figures when it is running right that week, but the thing is uglier than "Pete"'s pal rosie. |

| Re: oh my...motogp for the street. Wow, it really does look like they just put lights on the racer. I've always thought the Desmosedici was ugly though. All bulbous and goofy-looking. |

| Re: oh my...motogp for the street. Most important spec: MSRP=$65,000.
Actual sales price through the few dealers that get them: $HOLYSHIT.
I would be surprised to ever actually see one on the road or track rather than in a glass case. |

Every 999R I've seen (all 3 of 'em) has had 2 inch chicken strips on the tires. It will be rare to see one of these things without the tire nipples still on. |

| Re: oh my...motogp for the street. "These are all benchmark performance features for a MotoGP replica bike, which is capable of delivering more than 200 hp of power with the 102 dB racing silencer and dedicated CPU race kit." http://www.motorcycledaily.com/01jun...esmosedici.htm
If they make the minimum for WSB or ama homologation (they are planning on 400 and i think that is enoff). I wonder if someone would enter one in a class. It would have been interesting to see what dorna would have done if they released this before this year. Moto gp states no production parts allowed.

Apparently they don't window shop for exotic Italian transportation either.
