haha depends on the type of riding. If its high speed and twisty I can go until I need gas. Slow speeds and traffic can be rough though. I still love it and feel its worth the pain. Life is too short.

More pics from the ride:

I'd say there was a fair amount of skill involved in his riding. That picture was passed around on ducati.ms a while ago as well and they all basically joked and said "quickest way from point A to point B is the shortest distance traveled".

Two things. Check out how great the new Panigale crashes. Happened at Kyalami track on the flat turn on, dropped the front end and well... the pics explain the amazing story after that.

Race! South Africa already has their second one built up and back on the track.


Next order of business. Moto Guzzi's new lineup.





And the racer version.
