1098 sport classic?
Ducati 1098R
I know it probably shouldn't be here, but I really like this custom build...

That is a cool-ass seat.

I think the idea has potential... I would be down with the idea of that much power with a classic look...

HAHA! That does look like an animal tongue.... e-gads... Looks like the backend was chopped off. Everything apart from the seat I like. The seat looks like they ran out of ideas and just threw something on there.

Any other angles? That rear is seriously lacking.

I dig it. I also like the seat. Although the lines of the bike in my mind dictate that the pipes end where the frame does - where the seat ends. Colors and flavors.

I really don't like this build. Some of Mr Martini's builds are very nice, but not this one. I really dislike the way he uses side panels without a front fairing.
To me, this bike looks like he just stripped the stock fairing, put on a new exhaust, and an ugly, poorly made saddle, along with those ugly side panels.
