Just like the HP2.  Nice bike, if you have 20K you're not using.

Yeah. It looks cool though. An interesting direction for Ducati to take.

It is freakin' 10 times cooler than the HP2.  
But, yeah, expensive.  

Looks like Streethawk (the old TV show).

you do realise my bike's licence plate says "STRT HWK"

streethawk had a longer nose, but yeah it was a super motard or a dirt bike in a body cast .. i wish i could own the original street hawk.. a guy in UK bought it for 12K, but i didnt have the money to do so. I got a dvd of all episodes on me.. woot woot!

And you know what the Street Hawk really was?

A Honda XCR500. They also used an XL500 and an XR500.

yup that i knew..  i loved the show street hawk.. god the countless number of broken bones and scrapes as i tried to do stunts like that.. but i did do a 360 vertical loop with ramp assitance.. and i got really good at pulling wheelies.
mind you i did it on a bmx bicycle.

I remember watching that show.  I think it was about the time Airwolf, Knightrider, and the A-Team was on, but the series did not last that long did it?


The guy that was the rider, didn't he play Daredevil in the old Incredible Hulk TV movie "the trial of the Incredible Hulk"?????
