That is incredible, Mototrend really stepped up their game.

It almost seemed like watching another episode of TopGear, especially with them getting an English accent commentator.

American Top Gear, take note!

Ducati is amazing :wow

very nice. Only thing they messed up on is ducatis are technically V twin it’s an L twin since the cylinders are at 90 degrees to eachother.

But knowing that I can get a range topping S1000RR for 6k less, I am not sure. I think the best bang for the buck is really the 848 EVO.

hmmmm I think the results could have been even more devastating for the 458 if they had Bayliss on the Ducati, I mean yes Rapp is a good rider but your talking AMA level.

Well, Bell is not exactly Lewis Hamilton either. The bike wins no matter what, how can you not win for something like that at less than 1/10 of the price? :thumbup

22k is Hyundai money man…LOL

But one thing is so true. 80% of the people who got a 458 probably can get 90% out of it, but for the bike, may be 5% of the people who bought it can get 90% out of it.
