That looks more like a Ferrari 430 to me. Mostly going on the taillamp design and the badge on the front passenger fender. Not necessarily a Scuderia as seen below, but the tail and badges are on all the 430 models that way.

Looks a lot more like a 599 than a 430 me. Look at the raised rear end end and the side skirt swooping upwards.

I was wondering about that, but the nose doesn't seem long enough to me. I've managed to actually touch a 599, and the nose is really long. The rear on a 430 is higher than that picture makes it look. You do have a point about the side skirts though. I'm fully willing to admit I could be wrong here. I wish the res on the video was a little better.

I'm surprised by the ammount of "Look Out for Motorcycles" signs I see around Central IL. I see it on lots of cars (including cop cars) and big banners here and there. I'd get a bumper sticker, but it's yellow and doesn't match my car. :smith:
Not a lof since I've moved up to Chicago, unfortunately.

Down here they had them at almost every major intersection where there was someplace to put the banners without them obstructing the motorist's view of the corners. I was pleasantly surprised. How did the traffic near campus treat you? That's the only part of town I avoid like the plague. Everywhere else is pretty good around here.

I happen to like my Phantom a lot. I just put 840 miles in on it in two days this last weekend without much of a complaint other than monkey rear end. And the tank is 3.9 gallons, so I can get almost 185 miles out of it even with my 300lb. lard rear end on it. I do wish it were lighter, but really that's about the only complaint I have. There is more than enough torque to make up for the shortfall in horsepower. I can pass on the highway even from 75 without much issue.

Edit: Oh I almost forgot. I really, really, really wish there was a sixth gear. It would make highway cruising a bit less vibey. And while the brakes could be better, I've yet to have an issue with stopping power, and I've had more than a couple close calls so far.

Good luck getting one, though. He only makes things in limited numbers and everything sells out within a day of going up for sale. I think my size was gone within 4 hours.

Oh yeah, I know. But now I at least know what I want. 20 minutes ago I was still searching for something. A step in the right direction, anyway.

I assembled the kikker in my living room, but it was a big rear end ground-level living room, so it wasn't too bad. I had a room mate, but it was a dude and he was cool with it(even if he called the bike a scooter <:mad:>)

I really want to build one of these someday just because.

Correction. Nothing Beats the Reverend.

Aw come on man, if you're going to post some Reverend, at least post the best he's got. Ignore the video.

Rolling through Montana on the 200/87/3 from Great Falls to Glendive. The road and Big Sky Country waiting to tear away my problems like I tear away the rubber from the tires on my bike eating up the miles to my next dose of reality. For a while I can be free, but I can never escape the pull of gravity.

I read somewhere that said a potential August US release is being looked at. Can't for the life of me remember where though. Maybe the movie's Facebook page.

Pro Tip: When they have a major event going on they open up the sub basement to the general public. All of the coolest poo poo is down there.
The vintage bike festival is coming up in October and I plan on being there.

I am seriously contemplating going to that as well. Got some land near Canton, MS I have access to, so may look to make a week or so out of it.

Targeted advertising at its best, I suppose.
