    I mean, for me an 08 R1 look's even more beautiful.Maybe it's because i've never seen a Ducati in the flesh.

    Or is the exclusivity ?

    Or is it their perfection in design in all way's,ie the chasis and all the tech side as well ?
    IKZACTLY! You see beauty really lies in the eye of the beholder and price and exclusivity gives things the edge. If you look at the new Honda City its a pretty good looking car for that price but its not THAT much appreciated becos its not 'so expensive'.

    But why I find Italian machines better to look at is becos they have very clear lines.....They blend into one another but still each line sticks out. The detailing of design is very thorough. You have to see one in flesh. The finish!

        Oh !

        I guess most in Europe and all just pass off the Jap's,right ?

        Infact,i remember reading a Bike UK mag in which the Aprilia RSV4 designer even mentioning stuff like " The new V-Max looks like a 'CARTOON' ! " !

          Tats becos english are just a bunch of whining egoist kids! They are whining becos -

          - The cars they built never move without the help of a tow truck
          - No one gives a care (can;t use the word i wanted to use) what they say
          - They get beated in Lords all the time
          - Companies from countries, they once ruled, are taking over British companies....

                LOL.They make fun all the time i guess.I think they even used to make a mockery of the Japanese team's initially in the 50's when they came for TT's only to have their rear end's whooped in no time .

                But bro, i think the RSV4 design guy was Italian.

                  Back to the topic- BS motoring carries the interview of deisgn guy of Ducati Street Fighter.

                  His thinking about design is like science and not art. Interesting Interview.

                            One cannot missed that thread at any point of time, had visited it earlier
                            Thanks picky..
                            I am sure that the companies(Yam, Honda, Suzuki and Ducati) in India wouldn't have even thought about such road-shows...
                            These kinda stuff not only promote and increase awareness about these bikes but also the importance of riding with safety gear and the respect for these potent missiles ...
