Radical Ducati
I know a lot of you are aware of these guys and they have been discussed here before. I have been addicted to their site for awhile now. This bike started life as a Hyper pretty sick if you ask me. It only weighs 320lbs or 145kg according to them. They have kits you can buy to trick out your bike. I wouldn't mind getting a dropped Hyper cheap and hooking it up like this one for a track bike. I better start saving more money  .

I've become a huge fan of the bikes Radical produces as well. I've perused their catalog and drooled many a time. Check shipping prices from Spain to the USA.. It'll cost you 2 billet clutch covers to ship 15 lbs.. I'd love to "Rad" convert my bike, but on top of the initial cost, I think It'd cost me another $1000 to ship the parts over here! (Just a guess.. )

Yeah your right, I don't think I was going to do it anytime time soon if at all especially on my current Hyper I wanna keep it street legal. If you got a cheap Hyper for $7,000 to $8,000 you could probably drop like $6,000 in Rad parts and have one badass bike.

Anything is a direct fit.. if you have enough Duct tape, a large enough grinder, and some epoxy
I don't know about shock mounting or any of that, but I think for the most part, most of the swingarms can be exchanged on the primary pivot point.

I have to say, I wouldn't mind turning my Hyper into this cafe racer style bike...
http://radicalducati.futurnet.es/upl...cafe_racer.jpg
Is there a way to buy only the parts needed to get the tank/tail and the headlight etc? Hmmm, could I keep my 2-1-2 Termi's I wonder?

no it's not a direct fit... I explored this option in another thread and had contacted radical to ask. It took some major fabrication work... also, I believe the blue bike in your pic has a 999 frame.
