site says 275lbs and 170hp. sounds like an E-ticket ride to me, except for 180,000$$$ price tag.

Just goes to show how liquid cooling ruins a beautiful motorcycle. My first thought was "geesh thats an ugly radiator" and the second was "that water pump is ugly".

The Rob Report is easily the most pretentious motorcycle magazine I have ever seen.

That's a 999 frame with a 998 swing arm. The motor is Testastretta. Probably a factory Corse engine. After searching the web those NCR heads almost certainly mean the motor is one of NCR's previous race motors, but you never know, it could just be a hopped up street motor - but I doubt it. The factory Corse motors have stronger crankcases and the sort of power that's putting out, it would need those works cases I'd suggest.

Forks look like WSB spec Ohlins. I don't like the biki fairing.

I suspect it looks a lot nicer in the flesh. those pic's can't do it justice, especially with the bike sat on those stands like it is.

"How much is that rad going to cost when you drop it"

Not to worry, this is the age of disposable bikes, one fall and they're totalled.

They had one at Firebird for the Springfest...was one DAMN SWEET machine to hear running. They were having problems with a racetunable ECM so it didn't make it out on the track. They forgot to bring the stock spare with them.

$25,000 per bike. Only imported 50 of them into the states. Has a 750cc motor but dont recall off hand who's motor it is. I want to say yamaha but that doesnt sound right.

Motorcycle consumer news tested one & had nothing but glowing remarks for it.

Dyna - that motor is an MV designed motor - not like a Bimota repli racer using whatever is available. It is a very high perf 750 IL4 with a lot of racing technology that went into it. Pneumatic valvetrain, etc...
The bike is uncomfortable as all hell and won't keep up with a Gixxer or 999 but it is much better built in fit and finish than anything else out there.

Dyna,
motor by yamaha!!!!! can I have some of what yer smoking?

Didn't you guys go to the Art of the motorcycle?

The senna is a hopped up MV F4. Motor is an Ferrari-Cagiva design, remainder of the bike was done by some guy named Massimo Tamburini at the Cagiva factory

Specs look like:

750cc (73.8mm x 43.8mm)
126Hp @ 12,200rpm (remember this from the factory)
top speed 171 mph (slower that that damn R1!)
uses a Weber Manelli FI, cassette gear box (6 speed) and a radial cylinder head. Also has an adjustable steering head

It looked pretty sweet in the Guggenheim lobby and yes, I'd love to own one
