MrHixxx 0 #1 September 6, 2007 So, I have less than 24 hours to go to pick up my new Superbike. It is my fifth bike after a CBR900 and 3 R1s. I have waited 3 years to get another bike again, but I think it will be worth it as I have waited 12 years to get a bike by this maker... Whataya-all think??? -HIxxxdeath,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrHixxx 0 #9 September 6, 2007 Ducati 1098 Base model. The motorcycling equivalent of having an Italian Supermodel. Ooooh Doggies... -Hixxxdeath,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrHixxx 0 #12 September 6, 2007 Oh, forgot the history... 95 CBR sold to get 98 Yam R1 first year of prod 98 Yam totalled getting hit from behind by pick up truck (that shit hurt for months). 2000 Yam curteousy of insurance of motherfuck who hit me with the truck. 2000 Yam traded for 02 silver an black Yam in moment of weakness. 02 Yam sold in moment of even more weakness after bought of unemployment. 07 Ducati 1098 purchased after 40 years of failure to secure an Italian girlfriend. -Hixxx -Hixxxdeath,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diablopilot 2 #15 September 6, 2007 Cool, Ducati owners who are Ducati riders eventually become good mechanics. Or they buy a Yamaha. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrHixxx 0 #19 September 6, 2007 Funny you mention that, I was one phone call away from ordering an 07 R1 in red and black. I still completely love the Yams. However, I have a friend that has had 2 R1s who has an S model with the full exhaust and ECU who says there is no comparison. His 1098 crushes anything else he has ever rode. Ducati made a pretty substantial leap forward with the evolutionize engine. We will see it in Superbike next year... -Hixxxdeath,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHixxx 0 #20 September 6, 2007 Yes, I like how the 1098 is similar in the tail section to an MV. Now if I can just find a 2 into 4 slip on for it....death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHixxx 0 #21 September 6, 2007 I think it is even more significant what Stoner is doing in GP this year... The Ducati has the best power and that kid has the best focus. It is afterall the big kids league. I am afraid Foggy would have been just another guy chasing Doohan or Rossi in GP. -Hixxxdeath,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrHixxx 0 #23 September 6, 2007 It is kinda like sleeping with a hot chick with a medical condition. I mean you still don't say no...
