Bimota DB7 takes on the Ducati 1098R and MV F4

[@standish250]

One thing I haven't been able to understand is why people think these bikes are just so far out of their price range. A used Japanese bike is definitely pretty cheap, but new for new, a Ducati Panigale is only $5k more than a Honda CBR 1000RR. A BMW S1000RR is only $1k more. If you're looking to buy a brand new bike, is a few thousand dollars really going to stop you from getting whatever bike you love? Doesn't stop me.

[@Balvala]

I agree. The 312RR 1078 is the only model I'd consider purchasing, aside from the unimaginably expensive CC model.

[@dufferzzzzz]

i prefer Biomota's to anything, they are completely hand made by people that LOVE bikes and have a passion for them, not people that just need the work in a factory

[@dynoroad]

DB7 is so freaking good looking!

[@YamFZR93]

MCN is the best, thanks guys. All awesome bikes as you said. Looks like I'll need to get a black edition MV F4S in the future, if I can find a used one.

[@2007jawz]

you would think they could invest in a simple steady cam. they could even make one from pvc for 20$

[@themorganator]

normal MCN report then - fantastic insight, excellent information, top bikes.... pants video and sound! Please MCN, spend the money on a new camera/ mike combo! Keep up the good work!

[@salsasnacker]

I'd have to take all 3 of them!!! I would never be able to make a decision.

[@dynoroad]

Really good review MCN!

[@CAJFB]

I want them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@markkgrant]

what a beautiful trio of bikes perfect. Now lets see the same test in 2015 with the Mv RR and the 1299 ducati and the DB8 sp :) well done guys your cam work has got way better than this video.

[@carlosdeno]

nice work, thats one hell of a job..!

[@JeppeOlsen]

It's not everyday you get to say "The MV Agusta is the cheapest of the bunch"

[@S29ORY]

Thumbnail makes Neevsey look like an ecstasy tablet addict.

[@wheelie1005]

Buy the Mv if your an inline freak such as I. Buy the Bimota for that truly, bespoke haute couture experience in motorcycling. White is the new black. Hurray for 80's comeback. "Let's make lots of money"

[@gpotteiger]

Haha very true. Actually I really want to ride a new 250 ninja. If you learn to ride on a nice light bike with little power you'll have experience when you ride something with big power. The old 250 ninja wasn't bad (in fact I rode one for part of my motorcycle safety course) but that new one just looks cool. None of the dealerships had one they'd let me ride this summer imagine that show up on a blackbird and no ride on 250 ninja =( Oh well maybe I'll have to try again soon.

[@jcotteri]

What if you like the look of all three?? :(

[@CAJFB]

@YSBCITTAR what if you could have Ducati,Aprilia and Bimota?

[@PbMac93]

this guy is such a good presenter it is silly. He really speaks to real world riding.

[@TGASN]

No, i'll take them all day, that is the coolest fuckin bikes...

[@MrCole68]

all these bikes are awsome, but to be fair on here in australia the ducati and bimoto are $55,000 v mv augusta $34,000,, it would have been fairer to compair the 1098s not the r with trac control,,, as they are similar price and spec.... then the mv is a clear winner,,,

[@MrCole68]

guess we are getting ripped off in australia mv $34,000 bimoto $55,000 1098r $55.000 1098s $ 35.000 Thanks for the info

[@BanjoLuke1]

These are all lovely toys. There is no doubt that they are in a sublime class of their own. Nonetheless, one never sees machines of this type ridden to within half their capability. They are bought as aspirational boast machines. I love the way they look and sound. My years put me way past motorcycle reality, but I can dream.... and when I do, I dream of 1970s Moroinis and Guzzis. Lovely bikes in this video, but about as relevant as a Bugatti Veyron on a trip to Tesco.

[@Superjunkett]

j'veux les 3

[@Lynxtro]

More to a bike than just a motor.

[@arghone]

How about you employ me as your new camera man and editor! :)

[@Superjunkett]

mv f4 est la meilleure moto au monde et est la plus belle

[@valserify]

mv agusta f4 senza dubbio

[@nathancast]

Dont like the bimota design although dont doubt its a true performance bike.And i see to many ducati's in the street. Ill take the MV F4.

[@kr1stoOo]

italian's power :D

[@mungbean34]

Who is this guy? Is he an ex-professional racer?

[@ExploringwithGemini]

Ducati 1098!!!!!!

[@PhotosByHamza]

MV = $34,000 Bimota = $37,000 Ducati = $40,000 Get your facts correct, those are prices in the USA.

[@Biker999s]

F4 is the best ... i really don't give a shit for the rest !

[@ozziwill]

Great stuff - BUT STOP WITH THE PHONE RECORDING __ YOU COULD MAKE SOME MONEY!!!!

[@Qnickel27]

Love the bikes, honest review, but y is the camera man having a F*ckin hand spasm during the filming??? there is such a thing as a tripod...

[@rdgnz]

thought it was 24k

[@gpotteiger]

That's kinda like saying well that Ferrari is a nice car but I'm getting the Mazda Miata instead. LOL No offense just thought that was kind of a funny comment.

[@sdeary1]

these bikes are all hand built,

[@knightautres]

stop shaking the camera

[@sparklysparks77]

Over two minutes watching the guy's face instead of the bikes' lines or their track performance for that matter....

[@cuoredesmodromicooo]

qualcuno mi sa dire che cazzo ha detto in questa comparativa ? qual è la migliore? penso la mia (1098r) ma vorrei sapere che ne pensa quello li.......

[@jeffloomis1]

@spongezorz having the money all them are my friend ;-)

[@moriwaki1105]

Terrible camera work ....and "dash out of Casey Stoners GP bike" ?....what a load of crap....

[@kskisbetterthanseals]

you have no idea...

[@S01NOR]

@jcotteri then you gotta have a shitload of cash!

[@fckingutube]

is it just me or does neeves looks a bit wasted at the end :)

[@aaaa72434]

DB7 = Dragon Ball 7 ????

[@plusgtr1st124]

Ducati Bimota 7

[@SierraKilo9]

Great test! You've told me fucken nothing!

[@willytheekid]

PLEASE!! buy a new camera (and learn how to use it!) Great report as usual, but as always some of the worst camera and sound on youtube, if they can get over 50 grands worth of bikes, surely they can afford a camera worth more than the $80 one they are obviously using for these reports.

[@dekskii]

mv agusta>bimota>ducati

[@NationalistDefender]

@spongezorz How dare you, when your over 40, its better :O)

[@heidergl]

It's handmade and has limited production, that's why it's so expensive, but well, we're not in a socialist system so people use to have profit selling their products, if bimotas cost that that's because there is people willing to pay for it. You can't rate the bike by the ones on top of them, like there weren't R1, Blades and Gixxers posers. You probably don't apreciate bikes, and probably you are a Hater. =P

[@baldes]

No dubt Italian do it better !
