I have never been a fan of streetfighter style bikes, except for the few that were custom built from existing bikes. But my eyes caught on the 2009 Ducati Streetfighter S bike yesterday while browsing the forums and I fell in love for the first time with a different race. You know how you grow up only liking Asian or Caucasian girls, and then for the first time you see a hot, beautiful, sexy East Indian girl and then you're in love? Well, the Ducati does just that.
The features of this bike I like is a nice torquey 1099cc L-Twin and to control all that power is Ducati's traction control (DTC). It doesn't have ABS, but that's not a big deal for the seasoned riders. Everything looks perfect on the bike, but I feel like the side mirrors look a little bit like Shrek's ears. Oh well, that can be remedied with aftermarket mirrors if needed.
Go ahead and fetch more info from the Ducati Streetfighter website.
Modern sportbikes require premium fuel and as riders, we never think twice when pulling into a gas station and picking the premium grade for your high tech machine. Newer gas stations that offer the different grades of fuel through a single nozzle have been scamming you for years. If you select premium, the calibration chamber inside the pump and the hose may contain up to 8 liters (2 gallons) of gas. Therefore, regardless of your chosen grade, your first 8 liters will contain whatever fuel the previous user put into his vehicle and greater than 90% of the time, it will be regular. The clincher is that the next guy after you will be getting 8 liters of YOUR premium fuel that you paid for, but didn't get to use.
