I don't know if you guys have figured it out just yet, but I tend to steer toward uncommon things. Ducati, Triumph, Husqvarna, etc. Rather than stuff you see all over the place.

But, in this case, I'm also not trying to create a bunch of work for myself by buying something that's going to be a headache.
My hypermotard hasn't had any issues. I'm with you though, I like riding more unique bikes. I would definitely buy a speed triple, badass bike.

I want the new Diesel designed Ducati Monster

That is definitely a cool bike. How many miles are on your Hyper?

That pissed me off, too! When I saw the link on Ducati's website, I clicked it thinking they made a monster with a diesel engine. I am disappoint.

Correct, it's made by the faggot designer. In this case though, they actually did a good job.

I thought you just sold an R6? But im with you too, i'd rather have an italian bike, or triumph, or even another v4 honda than another generic inline 4 jap ss....

But that Monster is tits! I cant tell... 796 or 1100?
