Should I buy this Ducati?

Jiggles · September 25th, 2012, 02:35 PM

So my mom's coworker is selling his Ducati and asked me if I want to buy it. What do you guys think? Should I get it?

Here's a pic of his Ducati

CC Cowboy · September 25th, 2012, 02:44 PM

That's not a Ducati. Ducatis only come in red!

Jiggles · September 25th, 2012, 02:47 PM

He must have repainted it. Its a Ducati, he said so.

ninjamunky85 · September 25th, 2012, 02:47 PM

That's the ugliest Ducati I've ever seen.

Alex · September 25th, 2012, 02:51 PM

A - the mythical Ducabusa...

zenn92 · September 25th, 2012, 03:01 PM

The hayabusa looks obese. I'd rather have a zx-6r

choneofakind · September 25th, 2012, 03:05 PM

That Hyabucati better be turbocharged.

Aggrotech · September 25th, 2012, 03:20 PM

absolutely disgusting looking bike.
have the same hatred for zx14's.

austexjg · September 25th, 2012, 03:22 PM

Nothing Ducati....

Ducati doesnt make Hayabusas, you're thinking of Suzuki

They do make Hayabusas otherwise it wouldn't say hayabusa on the side of that ducati, I didn't even know the Italian alphabet used calligraphy

Jiggles · September 25th, 2012, 03:56 PM

We've been over this, it has a custom paint job which is why it is not red. I'm relatively sure that the custom characters say Ducati in Vietnamese

Not to mention the fastest! -- Though the Diavel is supposed to haul major ass in a straight line. Can't say that I would buy one, though. I'd rather have a sport-tourer or something.

Heed · September 25th, 2012, 05:00 PM

That Suzucati

JeffM · September 25th, 2012, 08:05 PM

No, no, no, it's a Bucati. Sheesh.

Coolbpf · September 25th, 2012, 08:31 PM

The busa and zx14 are ugly, ugly, ugllylyylyyllyyyyyy. I don't care if they can go a million miles an hour, they're freaking ugly.

Kevin2109 · September 25th, 2012, 08:33 PM

Amen to that. Ducatis are ONLY RED.

Great Ducatis are red with a white stripe.

Lil_Green_Demon · September 25th, 2012, 08:55 PM

Buy it, Jiggles! That thing will be an instant classic. You'll probably be able to sell the Hayaducabusati for triple what you paid for it in a decade or so!

knoids · September 25th, 2012, 08:57 PM

That looks like a nice, lightweight starters bike. I think you should buy it! Why would your mom's coworker lie!

Jiggles · September 25th, 2012, 09:02 PM

I don't need no stinking starter bike

psych0hans · September 25th, 2012, 09:26 PM

I'll buy it I'll buy it

I always wanted a ducabusa/hayabati... lol

ZackoFF96 · September 25th, 2012, 09:26 PM

thats the fattest ducati i've ever seen

Bassman · September 25th, 2012, 09:39 PM

Shouldn't the 1199 Panigale be faster than the 'busa? It's lighter and makes more hp.

Monkeytofu · September 28th, 2012, 12:37 AM

I hate model photo shoots because they're so out of place. How is she going to work on the bike in that clothing? She's just going to make a mess and ruin all those perfectly clean race jackets when she's trying to change out the tires.

Know how I know you're gay?

dirty nasty · September 28th, 2012, 03:12 AM

Mmmmm Busa. I was on a ride Tuesday night and a guy was on a Busa. The twisties we were on were so hilly we were catching air and doing wheelies as we crested the hills. Every time the guy on the Busa went over the hills you usually saw the trees above you light up for a good few seconds as he rode a power wheelie. Absolutely bonkers machines. Now I can see why my ex's dad bought one as his last bike before it got taken away in his divorce. Might as well go out with one of the ultimates.

ninjamunky85 · September 28th, 2012, 04:49 AM

The only 'busa I've ever seen that I thought was cool was this one.

If you don't know about this bike search "turbo busa fun" on Youtube.

Honestly I don't even know who buys a Hayabusa. The only people I see riding them look like total squids. Ususally wearing a T-shirt, shorts, and sunglasses, and I'm usually driving faster than they are.

If I just wanted something to cruise on that was also crazy fast in a straight line, I'd get a V-max, those bikes are Bada$$.

massacremasses · September 28th, 2012, 06:16 AM

Ive seen some sick Ducatis in white not just read... soooo....

Yeah both the Suzuki and Kawasaki big bikes are ugly. If the dude didnt know what he was riding I would imagine he wore a skull cap and sun glasses and thats it.

What route were you riding? Sounds like fun. Where were you?
