IDK about it. If I wanted a cruiser, the Victory style is more up my alley. If I want a sport bike, there are far better options for less. That said, I do dig a peppy cruiser and I love the ss swing arm.

Looks like a custom monster. I'd ride the wheels off it.

I mean it looks super badass, but how does it translate to actual usage?
The rear tire is probably as wide as a Lamborghini's, how does one bend that thing into a corner?

I have this waiting at home for me

And it's one of the main reasons I'm happy to go back.
It looks a lot more "normal", but I have never in my life ridden anything close to it in terms of balance between fun and actual usability
Oh yea that's what i am talking about.

I miss my R1150R. :crybaby:

Friend of mine has one of the street rod ducs, it's a wide thing for sure.

For Duc-Dough I want bolder styling, even more exotic, MV for me.

Yes, much bigger. Cool bike though. Not sure how much I trust MV motors, they've been blowing up with extreme regularity in World Superbike.

That Duc plays to a different market than I'm in, i.e. the 'Let's go park the bikes in front of Starbucks and admire them' market. :)

The Duc might be the perfect bike for me here in SoFlo. I've always been a sport bike guy with little interest in cruisers, but sport bikes are useless down here. If only it wasn't so expensive.
