I would kill for this bike!!!  ( no seriously, this bike is a major factor in my reenlistment, and seeing as I'm an 11B................ :icon_rolleyes: )
When i get this bike, i'm going to become the biggest squid ever!!!!  Matching jacket, helmet, gloves, socks, boxers all of it!!!!!!
My girl told me she thought I was more in love with the S4RS than her.............I respectfully decline to comment on the subject matter.  And besides the bike rides better :o


You know what man, you just made my day. Really.

That Duke looks pretty sharp.  And I can't find any bad reviews :o  except it vibrates a little............  What I can't find is a price tag :dunno_white:  Also while it certainly has very sharp and modern lines, the Monster beats it.  Thee monster has a more fluid and sleek look :thumb: :thumb:

Yup, that's pretty much thoroughbred naked/streetfighter  ( I bet it pops a hell of a wheelie  :icon_twisted: ) Anyone know what the price looks like??

Alpha, you need to put up a disclaimer before the torque curve of the speed triple because anything that good looking must be NSFW.  :bowdown:

Indeed.  This also shows how well the Speed3 freakin' dominates many sportbikes on the street.

No freakin' joke. I have heard nothing but glowing reviews on that 1050 engine.

P.S. - they look best in white:

 :o :o  OK that definitely puts it on my radar of prospective bikes!!!!  That's a slick price for that powerful of a bike :thumb:

Hadn't seen the triple in white, that is pretty good looking

Alphamazing

You could always try and find a used Z1000 too. Motor is based off the old Ninja ZX-9R.

The '03 Black looks the best.


MSRP on the updated '07 model (which uses an engine based on the ZX-10R, I believe) is $8649. But it isn't nearly as pretty.

The older one is definitely a nicer looking bike, but neither of them really do it for me  :icon_confused:


This does it for me!!!

nightrider

the crinkled-plastic Z1000 is sweet, are you crazy? I would totally rock that, as long as my feet reached the ground.

Speed3 in white FTW.  I fell in love with the white as soon as it came out.  DAMN I want one.

The concept of Superduke was influenced by the company's supermotard building experience
Duke was a quasi supermotard for the street and now comes the more street oriented Superduke,it's just in it's blood... :icon_lol:
Hybrid is a mix of features,in my minds eye I see some motard in it...
