Can't Afford To Buy A Desmosedici?
No worries, just hire one instead!
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DUCATI-DESMOSE...3A1|240%3A1318 My concern would be that they would argue a stone chip would invalidate the 'perfect condition'. That would make it a very expensive 200 miles

Just go to a dealer with your best leathers on, talk in a posh accent and wave your padded wallet about. Surely they can't ask for a 5k deposit for a test ride?

Re: Can't Afford To Buy A Desmosedici?
instead of just renting a bike that's designed for trackdays and riding around town at 30mph for 5Gs you could really make your penis bigger with surgery
or so i've heard

To use it for the full 9 hours you'd have to ride at a hair rasing 22.2 miles per hour!
Or riding with an active right hand, you'd have to take it back by 11 am Bargain! |

Yeah gr33k, would be a waste of money. Heard you struggled to get a bird into bed in the first place, never mind worrying about the size

Re: Can't Afford To Buy A Desmosedici?
I heave seen and heard one, and personaly i dont see what all the hype is about it. I think it looks dreadful and sounds like a tarted up VFR. Id rather take my 5 grand and search out a 916 ta very much.
