At that price you could get one from a stealer ! From what I remeber there are 1 or 2 still unsold in this country.Do you have to put on a whinging Aussie accent if you ride one? (for all of you non bike fans I'm talking about Casey Stoner)

For that sort of money I would want climate control, a good stereo and more comfortable seats.

I think I would blow part of the 30K on a flight in one of these.

After that, nothing would compare so there is no point in spending 30K on a 2 wheel death machine  Grin

You don't have a choice to be a passenger on the Desmo as you will get your bum burnt by the exhaust gases due to the unique routing of metalwork exiting where a passenger would normally sit.
