Ha - bet you thought I was dead (or wished I was). Ive been hunting for a new job and finally got one, thus the utterly pathetic lack of posts. I apologize in advance. I wish someone would comment, even to say "Your a tool! Two strokes are dead! Get a life you oil huffing freak!" or something along those lines...
I always lamented the loss (and utter failure) of the bimota vdue. It seemed a bike with so much potential. Take for example the pics included above of the Evoluzione Corsa 2001/2003. This was the pinnacle of bimota two-stroke goodness, a 135 bhp firebreathing freak weighing in at 330.6 pounds (150kg) dry. Thats pretty much fast enough to tear your head from your shoulders when the powerband struck. Attached also are the specs (in italian - sorry). Of course, you werent supposed to ride this on the street - but the addition of two duct taped mag lights and trailer flashers could trick even the most astute fun destroying copper.
Even though this bikes electronic ignition system was a sack of soldered up poo, and the bike itself was a bullet to the brain of one of my favorite all time companies... i still like it. Just look at it, come on now.
Now, Im gonna start saving up for that Vdue - one dollar at a time... then ill buy one from vdue usa and put it in my living room until my wife kills me.
