Speaking of the Bologna product, the proper Italian.

Love that bike.

Yeah, an appeal of bikes like the Hyper is the different take they have on what a sporting ride can be. An attraction of the Buell as well imo.

It took a little bit of time for me to get into the styling of the 999/749. But I think they look fantastic.

This is a proper Italian. Elephant on the fuel door and all.

Proper Italian here. Currently down to just my RSV-R factory, but will soon be adding another Tuono Factory to the stable to replace the one I destroyed in October.
