I'm sorry, but I have to share!

This is the sweetest bike ever created and I know the 14 guys can appreciate it. It has the wickedest sound ever also.

Sorry, but I've never been a fan of the v-twin sound. But it is a sharp bike! They definitely have styling.

Sweet as hell (Ducati in Red), L-Twin (90 deg.). Next film opt, should be in greener pastures---maybe the mountains. Thanks anyway for the steel jungle view with a $72k art piece.

Back in '92 when I lived in Fremont,Ca went to SF and a 851 with aftermarket pipes was coming down Market Street that was a sound was sweet -right up there with a CBX with 6 in 1 pipe wound up -those two bikes exhaust sound are unique.

Bike is a 4 cylinder L-4, (what ever that is) not a twin.

This war probably shot downtown where they knew the exhaust note would vibrate stuff and bounce all over the place, perhaps making it easier to record. I thought it sounded pretty good, though it would be crappy to listen to for a long ride. Also, speaking of exhaust, I don't think that bike had one, least I didn't see a pipe.

The exhaust exits out of the top tail section.

Listen to the end of this sound file...that's definitely not a v-twin!

The 14 with an Smeg sounds better and is faster. Why waste the money?
