  1. Horrible imho...there isnt a single thing i like about this bike, and i think im right in saying Tom Cruise has one..making it even less desirable...
    Who hear loves this thing??

    VYRUS 987 1198R Ducati engined 2009 | eBay
     
  2. I quite like it.
     
  3. bleugh
     
  4. Saw one in the flesh the other day at a Ducati dealership.I did admire the engineering and the quality of parts and finish.Would I buy one-no.
     
  5. As above saw them at WDW2010 not for me but appreciated the engineering and effort that went into it

  6. It's very interesting but also pig ugly.... Not too mention that for this sort of money you can have a bit nicer bike ;)
     
  7. When that fell out of the ugly tree, it really did hit every branch on the way down!

    Engineering masterpiece though :smile:
     
  8. I'd love one, a future classic and it'd make a great track bike!

  10. Not for me but could be a hoot to ride.
     
  11. Fabulous thing - love it. Why be ordinary.

  12. I'd love one, not for my only bike but maybe number 6 or so.
     
  13. +1 :upyeah:
     
  14. whats the point of an exotic bike or car if its not also a thing of beauty?? who cares about the engineering when it looks like its been styled by stevie wonder...half finished springs to mind....pointless....would you rather shag a toothless, specky four eyed, gaunt, spotty librarian in an old cardie, or an avid reader who looks like a supermodel?
    yuk, yuk and thrice yuk...fuggin fugly....if yer mates saw it, they'd say...'and you spent how fkn much'??
     
  15. r..r..r..r..really???
     
  16. Funky - you surprise me. I'd of thought that if any one could see past the aesthetics of a bike and look at the beauty underneath, you could. No, it's not beautiful in the conventional sense - good. Comparing it to a super model is daft as well. If you take the clothes off a 916 would you shag it? I think not.

    The only thing I don't really like about the vyrus is the spiderman paint and it desperately needs a decent tail-tidy. Other than that, good to go. Particularly love the single sided air in-take, hey babe, stroke my snorkal.

    Now I'm going to get it ....
     
  17. I love the engineering that's gone into it, a genuine attempt to do something different. I doubt, as the advert says, that it does 187mph though...
     
  18. It's like a Porsche Boxster, can't tell which is the front. :biggrin:
