Hi everybody,

 

Julian Thomson and his team created the Lotus Elise, he and his team besides the "Dino" also were inspired by the Ducati 916.

I was wondering which bike could stand next to the Speedster slash VX220.

I have a Suzuki GSX-R 750Y, my Turbo is a Europa Blue one and the bike of course a Blue and White one

Who among us is riding a motorcycle and which one?

 

 

Thanks, have a nice day

Speedster together with Supermoto race bikes (and some enduro). Mainly competes in the Swedish championship but also do some road racing :)

 

Main bikes right now are Husqvarna FC450 2018 converted to Supermoto and Husqvarna FE350 2017 for enduro.

But there is also a Honda CR500 and an older Kawasaki somewhere in the garage. Oh! and a Yamaha FS1 moped :)

I need to use this as 'evidence' to the other half that having 9 Ducati's is quite normal...

 

I recently joined Ducati ownership with a 959 Corse. And I did my first bike trackday for over 12 years the other week on it.

Try the line that Ducati ownership is cheaper than wife ownership

Hmm, I went to buy a 916 with 6900 km on the meter. The bike looked like it had 30.000 km.

The price tag was 8000€????

So, 8000€ for a Ducati 916 with 6900km :huh:

 

I left the bike where it was

 

9 bikes and how many cars? Ivor, you have a lot of space.
