A pimp 848. You may have missed it, but it is worth seeing
This bike is soooo drool worthy. I couldn't own it. If I did own it, it would sit in A/C comfort inside my house for ever and ever.
2010 DUCATI 848 NICKY HAYDEN EDITION "Ducati North America is proud to announce the 848 Nicky Hayden Edition. This striking livery places a distinctly American stamp on the market's best middleweight sport bike. The 848 Nicky Hayden was publically unveiled at the 2009 Red Bull United States Grand Prix at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, where Nicky’s MotoGP race bike was presented in a matching scheme. There could be no better time or place to celebrate the American World Champion than at his home race on the 4th of July. This US-exclusive model features an American inspired paint scheme, aptly fit for its introduction on the 4th of July, personally autographed gas tank, and model updates for the 2010 year. Check out the video of the Nicky's photo shoot with the bike below! The new Ducati 848 Nicky Hayden Edition enjoys all the performance advancements of the entire Superbike family, while adding its own innovations to redefine the middleweight sport bike class. The words 'agile' and 'refined' aptly describe the 848. At 168kg (369lbs), the 848 is an amazing 20kg (44lbs) lighter than its predecessor."

I saw a red one at the Atlanticade and keep stopping beside it to admire and drool over it. Come to find out this hot chick was riding it out to the gate with sexy Icon bombshell boots. Let me tell you she sure turned some heads.

I'll take a regular white 848 in exchange for the fancy one if they'll throw in Nicky Hayden.

I think that bike would eat me alive if I even tried to get near it. Looks awesome, though.

I like the regular white one better too (I don't need them to throw in Nicky though). It is cool that they made one in honor of him though.

the rear hub on the chain side has always bugged me with the ducs. seems like they'd dress it up a bit on such a fancy bike.
i still think they're badass though. i'd love to have one in white.

This bike is controversial because it's mostly a paintjob (and strange one at that) and Nicky Hayden rides MotoGP not WSKB and, last but not least, he comes in last, but not least in his races. (not totally his fault, in fairness)

Um... he came in 5th at the last race... That's hardly last. Plus, this is his first year with Ducati. As a matter of fact, his last 3 races were top 10, and he only crashed out once. Maybe this is where your getting "last" from?
And, it's not like you can buy a MotoGP bike. Well, you can, but it's last years Desmocedici RR (GP08). Hayden has a ton of fans in the US, so the only thing that surprises me is that they did this to an 848. Then again, the 1098R special addition is the Troy Bayliss bike, so I guess the 848 makes sense...

The RR was loosely based on the GP06, not the GP08. I'd still take one, though.
