Hrm, production bike? I dunno what I'd go with, probably a 999R, Daytona 675, or Desmosedici RR. I'm all about the Euro bikes!

If I could take any bike for a spin I'd go with the RC211V...probably.

Well, someone had to produce it.

Actually no, they just threw a bunch of parts in a box and all the GP bikes magically popped out! (kinda like the kid's stories where they didn't break the lamp, they just magically broke)

Well I've got my dream bike but I would also like to try a Victory cruiser. I wanna say it's a Vegas but it comes in KTM orange and grey on the bottom. Sweet looking bike.

Should've entered in that Rockstar Midnight CLub II sweepstakes for a chance to win that bike with some mods.

First choice, MvAgusta Brutale:

Second choice, Harley Nightrod Special VRSCDX:

that nightrod just looks mean, I bet it sounds just divine too.
I'd likely take out any 900cc+ super motard, ducati and ktm both make them right?

Hey verm there are lesser model of the 999 that are not 31k. you might find yourself liking the twin. A friend of mine has a 749 (non R version) its as fast as any 600 supersport and will outcorner most other bikes. you get a ducati for the incredible handling, and just accept the fact that its slightly less powerful than the competition (they still win on the track despite being underpowered)

A 999R that you'd buy is NOT what they're racing on the track though. Sure, it's got Ohlin's this and Ohlin's that, but it not the same bike. Every single aspect of the AMA and WSBK 999F's have been tweaked to make the bike more powerful, lighter, and more flickable.

And I can already guess what Verm will say about riding a 999 that's not an R (something to do with the horsepower I'm sure).
