There are so many things wrong with that, a part of me has just died, and my beleif that Ducati are gay has just been firmly cemented.

Isn't it basically just a slightly tarted monster?

With the exception of the mirrors, I would quite happily trade my missus in for one of those. I'd spend every non-riding minute licking it clean and masturbating excessively.....maybe I'm just a little odd.

I can't figure out wether it's smart or too 'busy'. Mirrors look like rabbit ears. You'd be hunted down and killed by Elmer fudd for owning it I imagine.

I don't see why you hate it so much, and why it makes you think Ducati are gay? Confused

Probably a much better bike for the real world than any of their sportbikes, and it would seem to be able to carry a tailpack better than any Monster.

Not worth the money new though, but then again, what is?

It's like a monster but designed for fellas rather than birds.

Meh, it looks ok.
The lighting for those pics doesn't really do it any favours I think.
It's hard to see all the detail.

I still have always considered a street fighter to be a highly modified naked bike.
This is more cafe racer like the TNT for example.

Part of me didn't die because of Ducati lowering themselves so to speak, but because this is an abomination of a streetfighter (I know there are plenty more) and completely defeats the point of a fighter, which is that you do as much work as possible and get something only you could imagine up, which certainly isn't the case here.

Brilliant bike from tailpipe to radiators, but why on earth did they take the front end off a moped and strap it to a monster?

A Ducati Monster is not actually a monster.

An Aprilia Shiver is not an involuntary twitch brought on by the cold.

A KTM Superduke is not some sort of awesome aristocrat.

My point is that a name is just a name, it can't make a bike bad.

At least it is a name, rather than a collection of letters and numbers.

Sure, it takes cues from the 'streetfighter' subset of bikes, but it is just a name. I'll bet my ass that it rides a damn sight better than most of the streetfighters that you recognise as such.

I'm ashamed to say I like it. Although I keep thinking the CB1000R would be a little better.

Also the point of a 'chopper'.
As I've said before, not what I'd consider a streetfighter to be, really.

It looks REALLY similar to the B-King and other angular bikes that seem all the rage these days. My only immediate dislike to it is the mirrors, not nice...I would have to see it in person to make a full assessment.
