To rub it in I have a good chance of seeing one as my local dealer has the £11k deposit for one.
BTW it's the WSB bike for 2014

sent from the shredded wheat factory

I searched the Terracorsa and first thing which came up was a ducati forums with most of the people saying "What's the point?"

I thought that was the point. I really want one by the way, reckon that would be a huge laugh on forestry fire roads if you have big enough gonads to ride hard there.

Showed someone here at work and that's what she said, what is the point.

My answer was, because they can and why the hell wouldn't you!?

Plus the idea of going hunting on a superbike, stupidly brilliant!

Search YouTube for it. One of the vids is where that promo shot was taken.

I meant them as a company, if they can make a brilliant concept bike why wouldn't they.

Personally regardless of the suspension, meaning even if it were off road suspension, if I just spent however many thousands I that bike i would be hesitant to take it on the road let alone off road lol

Especially the superleggera, £54k, id keep it in my lounge!

Terracorsa is cool but they ride it on a dry wood path.. You could do that on slicks. Be cool to see if it can get really muddy but I'm betting it'd suck as soon as theres some muddy puddles.
