Cool Tamburini's favorite modern bike

It's beautiful. Massimo Tamburini says so, and you don't quibble with the creator of the 916.

Asked what his favourite bike of modern times is, his reply was: "It’s unquestionably the Ducati Hypermotard. Pierre was one of my students and I greatly admire his work at Ducati.

"It represents everything I want from a bike: reasonably powerful, lightweight, minimalist, with a unique style. If I were designing a machine today this is the direction I would go.”

Wow! I guess I have good eyes. Every time I come home and I see her park beside the entrance door, I stop and l admire her beauty, she brings joy to my life.

"Pierre was one of my students....."?

I do agree, the HM is, generally speaking, a "unique", decent looking bike, but what I really like is that owners can/do customise them, and that's when some of them *really* shine/get the juices flowing.
