Gixxus Christ! Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Wow, that's one expensive toy....kind of like the Ferrari of motorcycles, hand built, supreme performance, maintenance probably costs almost as much as purchase price..all for slightly better performance than you can get from a modded jap bike....still be on my list if I hit the lotto.

Scruit Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Knobby tires and 250mph 90 degree turns.I see George Clooney! 250mph would be more believable without the 130G turns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bitani Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Saw one of these right after they shipped out. Dude had waited a few months on pre-order. I might have killed him and raped the bike if we weren't at a large intersection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conn-e-rot Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 There was a bike that was on some show a couple years ago that they said is hand delivered to the customers door from factory might have been bimota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bitani Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I've ridden a few MVs. I have even ridden one with a $120' date='000 MSRP. It was awesome and terrifying at the same time. The Brutale is still my favorite MV, though.[/quote']That would be an awkward bike to crash. "Umm, yeah, about that 120K..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're buying the exclusivity and style. With all the convenience of no dealer or aftermarket support!If I really had "F you" money, it would be cool to own, but I'm a value guy. If I hit the lottery, I'm buying Nelson Ledges, picking up 12 first generation Miatas (10 to race, 2 for spares/parts) and as many SV650's and EX250's as I can get my hands on.Spec race series any time we want. Just bring gas, gear, and throw in a few bucks to the tire fund (spec series means spec tires. Best I can find that won't need warmers). We'll run the bikes when it's nice, cars when it's not. Hell, we can do a snow series with the cars.I'd work something out with Todd to keep MotoSeries going, and cut WERA a deal provided they go back to two rounds a year. 24 hours of LeMons would have a standing invitation.

Every bracket/bolt/etc on that bike was beautifully machined from billet.120k is way more scratch than I would spend on a bike, but the attention to detail on that one was above anything I'd ever seen before (or since).

redkow97 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Shit, 200.8HP base with it's lightweight...it's faster than those bikes.Okay, so buy a S1000RR instead, or a ZX10R. Both can make 200hp at the crank with an exhaust system and a good tune.How much more do they weigh? How much do you weigh? The rider is still the biggest place any bike can accelerate faster by losing mass.EDIT** dry weight for the F4 is listed at 418 lbs. Japanese 600's are in the 360 lbs range when dry. The ZX10 is listed at 395 dry, and as noted, makes damn near 200 at the crank stock as well.I'm not trying to bash the F4, I just couldn't possible rationalize spending that much on one when you can get the same specs for a fraction of the cost.

I'm sure if I saw everything you own there is a few things that I would think is stupid to spend money on, but I wouldn't even mention it to you. It's not my money so I don't care what you do with yours. :werd:I thought you were studying to be a lawyer and not a financial advisor?
