The Ultimate Motorcycle

Vasanth , Rajaram and Venkat all have posted there dream bikes but dream bikes are always subject to change why because either u achieve ur dream or there is a bike always to replace it example my dream bike is a Ducati 916 this bike was a work of art in fact its in Smithsonian institute in the art gallery and this bike is synonymous with the ducati name and it brought ducati in mainstream it was the same bike that won 4 superbike championships with Carl Forgaty and before this ducati was also in racing and they were successful with there first bike a 125cc grand sport desmo followed by a 250 and then came the legend Mike Hail wood whose father wanted his son to race on a ducati but he was not able to convince the factory to build a bike for his son so he ordered 200 bikes so his son can race and the legend lives on but the irony is ducati was originally a radio making electronics and electrical company but after there factory was destroyed in world war 2 they started making mopeds and followed by appointing the great tagollini who gave ducati the desmo and L-twin which is what still they make
               ok lets get back to dream bike now my 2nd dream bike slowly replacing the 916 though i am fighiting the temptation hard is the ducati desmocidici its about i dunno guess a crore in india and its got a 200bhp L-four engine with titanium valves and all the bells and whistles its a motogp bike for the street same as an f-50 for ferrari

but all these keep getting replaced because am sure there is going to a better bike which ducati might bring out

Then the quesstion what would be the ultimate motorcycle the answer in material terms would be the bikes to come in future years but that kind kills the idea of a dream bike . But what an ultimate bike is it should be soul of the all motorcycles it should be a definition of motorcyle with only the basics and not a fancy gizmo , it should be something which tingles ur senses and lights u up and takes you to everyplace u want to go ie it should not jus be a track weapon or dirt racer it should be something of everything it should be fully mechanical and not some software engineers wet dream with lots of microchips and finally it should be from a place where industrialisation began and hence my friends i give u the ultimate motorcycle

Its a 500cc single which is the soul of any  motorcycle and its the basic machine with no fancy gizmos and its a delight to look at it and a pleasure to ride and its the ultimate truth
