My Ride: 10 Honda Fit Sport, 10 Honda Pilot Touring

As some of you know, I sold the 550, sold the Range. I honestly thought I could make it with out any fun vehicles in the stable. I was really trying. I even went so far as to join a Honda Fit forum and started modding. Bwahahaha! Well, I made it one whole month with the Honda Pilot Touring and Fit Sport(yeah, it has nav, BT, Stability Control AND Paddle Shifters) ...I'm going CRAZY!!!

I'm leaning towards the Black Street Fighter S. I know, I know, I've heard it and said it myself..."It's a Ducati, it has to be red. That's like buying a Ferrari and not getting red." I just think the red looks too busy with the CF, Black, Gold shocks and bronze frame/wheels.

Here's a link to the model configurator. http://www.ducati.com/vi/bike/configurator...ail&id=1496

Here are some pics, VOTE away.

I vote for red cause black at least some parts of the bike will have some contrast. With black, nothing stands out except the gold shocks.

And another thing, learn how to post pics vertically so I don't have to scroll across. Last warning before you're banned.

J I vote red. The black one is nice but the red stands out more. As Tony mentioned the red looks much better

Wow! Never seen it before...the bike looks bad ass.
I like the red. It'll go well with your red/blk leather jacket.

John, I voted for black, because it looks HAWT!!!!
As a former Ducati owner (2003 999s) - there is only one thing I can tell you: GO FOR IT!!!!!! These bikes are the most fun you can have, just be careful and wear a helmet.

Hey John, I vote black but if you really want to be different and have the absolute sickest bike around, how about one of the confederate machines???
