I was checking out the new S2R 1000ds monster at Oceanside Ducati on Friday. It's not real bike but I did like that motor in my Multistrada.

I think it would make a great 2nd bike.

EDIT-"it's not real big"

Imagine what they may turn out in response to this?

In my experience the big 4 aren't ones to sit around feeling sorry for themselves. I'd bet their already at the drawing board working on what's next.

Buell, in my opinion just poured gas on the fires of innovation. This could get interesting?

Only if I get to supply the body-bags.

Really that would lead to a lot of deaths and nobody "SHOULD" want that. I am sure that somebody would enjoy seeing people die for their pleasure but should we really care what people like them want?

"latest review" = 2004?

It's all pretty subjective, one mag says the Buell is the best handling bike ever, another says not... one thing is for sure, 90+ % of Buell owners agree the stock Dunlop 207s completely and totally suck and the bike is hugely improved by decent rubber

I'd say my Ducati handles better than my Buell but the Buell was definitely fun and cheaper to run too... I could see myself riding a new Ulysses
