Well, I picked a new toy... an '08 Ducati Hypermotard 1100 - full LeoVince exhaust, Ducati Performance cams, ECU reflash, EVR slipper clutch, and a bunch of carbon. I'm loving it so far! Sorry, just a bunch of crappy cell phone pics so far...

First fill up...

Nice dirt bike.

hardly...sure, you could take it in a little dirt, but this thing is made for the street

Thanks, I'll own an 848 one day too. The guy I got the Hyper from just picked up a brand new one and that thing was incredible!

Nice gear.

I knew I'd get some comment like this :rollseyes

But just in case its going to keep you up at night, I do usually wear a jacket, we were just cruising highway and it was nice outside so I took it off for an hour or so

I bought mine from Daytona Ducati the first year they came out. I had a blast on that bike. Wish I still had it :(

Very nice! I'm actually in the process of selling my Cobra for a Ducati too. I'm currently looking at the 848 & Monster 1100 Evo. I'm leaning for the Monster right now unless they come out with a Streetfighter 848 soon!

Congrats! I have admired those since they came out. There are quite a few around my area and I always stare as the go by. :banana:

1) The 848 is a great bike!

2) Why not just get the Streetfighter with the 1098/1198 engine if you have no problem with an 1100 Monster? An 848 Streetfighter would be cool though!

cool looking bike. A buddy I work with rides a blacked out Harley V-Rod. He wants to upgrade to the Diavel.

The Diavel right now is probably the quickest bike on the market. 0-60 in 2.6 which is faster than any of the current 1000 sport bikes and it's faster than it's closest rival, the Vmax. It's all in it's 460lb weight and the longer wheelbase.

I rode a 600 four years ago and i know a 1098/1198 will be way too powerful for me. The 1100 is alot better, it's air cooled and definetly not a superbike engine. The bigger bikes are also out of my price range, unless i buy used of course.

I really want a black Sport Classic but those bikes are so hard to find!!!

How long can you go with a single tank on the motard? That tank looks really small
