    Toys come & go... Sometimes too quickly to enjoy!

    So I have this in my custody right now and wish it was nice out in order to go for a rip... She will hopefully be leaving by Friday heading for Florida with it's new owner.

    The Super Duke is gone, this will be gone but a new baby will be ready to rock come spring! Not sure if she will make it on the street or not, may just nbe a track beast for a year..

    Here are some pics of the toy ready for trade.

    The rest of the shots are here..

    I will end up in Jail if I keep this bike!!! It would be way too much fun... Look at it, it just says Hooligan.

    I knew that I wasn't going to keep this long, but was surprised to find the deal I did as fast as I did for the bike I WANT!!!

    Well....I think I call BS!!!

    I really don't think that bike says 'Hooligan' to the average observer or LEO. It might say 'dirt bike' or 'wtf is that' or 'is that a scooter?' I realize it's not REALLY in the same class as the Multistrada but, they both have big twin motors, look freekin' odd, have low end and midrange torque up the waazzoo, and are more fun than really SHOULD be legal...and as far as I'm concerned, the Strada is the perfect 'Stealth' bike. It goes like hell, handles fantastic in the twisties, and looks slow...perfect!

    The question, for those who don't already know, (me), is what is the bike that you WANT. And, apparently are GETTING? I hope is stealthier than the Duke but I doubt it...

    Congrats anyway...!!!

    Not stealthy at all.... But something I love! I got this for tade of the DUKE II Even swap! Deal worked out nicely.... How many of you are not surprised??

    This is a super clean bike with almost all the mods I want. I need to get an aftermarket seat, bar risers and once the pirelli's are chewed up Some fresh Pilot Powers will be on her! Oh I have a lot of stickers that need to be removed also .....

    I will get better pics after a bath soon!
