Some Pics

[migz123]

At Spectrum Ducati in Irvine last Sunday. Members of the Orange County Ducati Club were there to watch Round 1 of World Superbike at the dealership's lounge. I snapped these pics ... there were a lot more bikes, but I didn't have the time to take more pics:

A gsxr 1k with a pretty unique Undertail exhaust. Sounded nice too:





This one had the special tail someone was asking about on this board the other day:



This bike got lots of attention:

















XEROX bike, just a couple of weeks old. THere was another one that arrived later:




This one was by far the sexiest :





Just a plain old pic I took on a ride on the way home (errr, the long way). I damn nearly fell when my right foot slipped off the gravel while my left foot was pulling the kickstand down. It's a good thing I have super powers (like fear of 4k in damage):

Good shit that GSXR undertail is pretty cool.

I just kinda wonder why some of those people still use the dunlop 208, I guess none of them had any close calls with them yet.

Oh and by chance do you know what kind of windscreen is on the xerox ducati, and what company makes the one you have

I'm not sure what the windscreen is on that Xerox bike. The one on mine came right off the parts shelf at the dealership, not sure too what brand it is exactly, maybe it is Ducati Performance. I'll ask when I visit there again.

Very very nice! I'll bet it was a lot of fun!

He he...I noticed all the Dunlops too. Great pics. Migz, as much as I love your bike, it's gonna come in a VERY tight second place in this photo shoot. That Xerox bike has touched me for some reason like no other bike in a long time. Off the subject though...how much mileage are you getting out of your Pirelli's?? I will need tires this summer and on top of that, have a track day in September so toying with the idea of trying a set considering I have never heard any kind of bad about the Diablo's??

Yes, the XEROX bikes looks very nice, from a distance you would think that Bayliss himself is coming to visit It is definitely a head turner (it better be, for over $35k invested).

About the tires - this is the first time I have used Diablo Corsas. I only have used it 500 mi since I got it 2 months ago, so I can't give you very good advise for its longevity. Also, I have never used it on the track yet, although I have a couple of track days this year to try it out ... I'm kind of excited for that, just waiting on some plastics to arrive.

I am told that even Advanced group riders can get 4 track days out of the rear Diablo Corsas, and twice that for the front. (this was definitely not the case with SuperCorsas, which I ran before - 3 days at best. I loved those tires).

i am getting tired of everbody copying the undertail exhaust. come up with something original.
