Hey y'all I had a nuts week, but at least I can finish it with something cool I got to film an incredible V4 SP, check it out:
Stunning bike, me want. But here's the crux for me. Look at the place, a veritable palace of consumption in chrome, glass and marble; it a bike FFS, not a pare of Gucci pumps. Who do you think the poor shmuck is who is paying for that? No wonder high end Ducs are over 20K. When I see these places, for instance the old place in Hillington in Glasgow, I think of the salesman as this Ewok, and I am sure you wont even get a reach-around to soften the blow! No wonder dealers are saying enough is enough, I know of two ex franchise holding dealers who told some major manufacturers to GTF on this very issue. Its about time that we the consumer told them. After all we are not made of money, at least I'm not...
I think i might have to stick with my Red v4s, the black looks amazing but i don’t think the bank manager would be too impressed, Have to agree with the earlier quote, “bikes are to be ridden, not ornaments”
I think the best think is to ride the ornament You have to stop worrying about scratches and such too much, then it gets really awesome. I crashed a 998 twice on track. I could blame myself all day, but just to have ridden one of these things on track like that is mind-blowing because that is what they were designed for.
