Very Cool, once you get used to the see through gas tank....     I ride with a guy every now and then who has one and I have ridden his several times....  They are a Blast to ride around on...  They are the definition of a "Wheelie Machine".  I have never had such a hard time keeping the front tire down on a bike before....  Not even my old YZ250.    They corner like a beast with the short wheel base, too and the belt drive is smoother than greased owl AppleSauce.  But at the end of the day, I'll take my Duc....

Look's like something from "Mad Max".

there's a guy that rides with the houston ducati guys that has a cityX. he likes it. I like Ducs....

but they are sweet lookin' and little. It was on the short list with the monster and speed triple.

it's just you... 

[BDC]

The Buell's about as ugly as the Busa...


Don't tell the Mad Scotsman I said that!...

It looks like a toy.  I'd ride the @#%^ out of that bike.

Ok already...geeze.

[Davesax36]

it's ok, dude. some of us like it.

I think it's very sweet looking, combined with the lowest lean angle of any sport bike on the market and a super low center of gravity (the frame is the fuel tank, the swingarm is the oil tank, and the muffler is mounted below the frame) and the v-twin torque will out accellerate almost any other sport bike on the road light to light.

They have a display over at Mancuso off 290 with one leaning over at its maximum angle.  the thing is almost laying on the ground.

hey, you started it by asking our opinion, and to top that, you ask on a cruiser forum board 
and yes, I looke at it from a different angle, its still fugly 

[j1mmyj4m]

I didn't ask for the anal probe though.
