Who needs fairings when your Ducati can look like this?

^{ummm, I can't say I'm keen on it}

Not sure Sue would like it either

As an aside, I am trying to get a test ride of the new Ducati, with Sue on the back, to see if it is comfortable enough now. We are on a BMW at the moment, as the old Multistrada was just too uncomfortable for her.

Its supposed to be better, but it seems impossible to get insurance for a test ride. I think I will eventually have to insure the demo bike myself, with the idea I buy it if I like it.

Man that's crazy with no option for frame sliders. I guess this bike isn't meant to actually be ridden.

Frame Sliders...  I think it might spoil the lines.

you mad-crazy-man. Do you have sliders on your elbows as well as your knees? 

Depends on what I'm riding, but usually (dirt), yep!

If you ride, it's not a matter if, but when, you will go down. That bike is like riding a mirror-plated machine.

Don't I know it....  a couple of years ago I dropped mine with Sue on the back. The off-road Triumph went down too many times!!!
