Worth an astounding £40,000, this new bike from Ducati is currently being showcased at Ducati Glasgow in the UK. Engineer Scott Charles first conceptualized the project 6 years ago, and just this January 28, 2008, his dream was made a reality with the help of the Ducati Team.

Here’s a video of the Desmosedici RR on bike stands.

Tom Cruise will get this bike for $72,500, according to this source. I’m also a biking enthusiast and I would very much like to get my hands on a Ducati 998, Trinity’s bike in Matrix Reloaded, but I don’t see that happening in 10 years. Perhaps when Tom Cruise gets tired of his Desmosedici RR, I can buy it from him for cheap.

Here’s a picture of the Desmosedici RR, a Moto GP Racing red-white replica, from topspeed.com.

I’ve only seen one Ducati in my life at Eastwood last year. Hopefully through blogging, I can see one on my garage everyday.
