I like how the wheels spin when it’s mounted in the wall. Gotta go fast

Anyone willing to do this cannot have the intelligence to secure it properly.

Feel for the small animal on the couch looking back at it worryingly.

The cat’s looking forward FWIW

Looks like a dog looking back

That’s a Darwin Award waiting to happen !

But can you ride it though?

Kecessa , (edited )

Even if it wasn’t on the wall, seeing how it’s an old Ducati, no.

Edit for those who don’t know: Maintenance on old Ducati, especially sports bikes with desmo engines, is a total pain in the ass and is so expensive that it just doesn’t make sense to ride the bikes. Thousands of dollars every 10k km kind of expensive…

Hank ,

Now the entire apartment smells like oil, gas and other carcinogenic chemicals.

“Essential oils”.

They're not called aromatics for nothing.

As a gearhead myself, sounds good to me.

It's not decorating. This is a 215SF studio in Brooklyn - that's the "parking included" feature of the listing. And he's paying an extra $1200 a month for the privilege.

Yeah, hanging up something weighing 2000 lbs over my couch is how I achieve relaxation and bliss.

RaoulDook ,

That’s more like the weight of a small car. The motorcycle probably weighs in the ballpark of 400-500 lbs.

Still far too much weight to hang from the (assuming) 2x4 wall studs behind the drywall there. Also probably quite a hassle to get down when you need to ride it and when you come back home to re-mount it on the wall.

Yeah if you manage to get it hanging safely, how will it ever be anything else than decoration? It’s not a 20 lbs racing bike.

For it to be usable you would need some mechanism to raise and lower it, and then the decoration aspect will go.

Kecessa , (edited )

Tons of old Ducati super sport motorcycles end up as decorations that will never touch the street or track ever again because maintaining them makes no sense…

poppy ,

Wonder if it’s mostly been gutted and is literally just decoration.

QuinceDaPence ,

It's a Ducati 912, it weighs 429lbs and that's on the heavy side of sport bikes.

Even the Boss Hoss which has a V8 from a Corvette is only 1100lbs.

Lmao 429lbs dry but close enough 🤷‍♂️

lemann ,

I was scared about my projector dropping on my head, having a whole ass motorcycle there would put me off sitting on my couch entirely lmao

dotslashme ,

You got to have some admiration for whoever screwed in the bolts that hold the bike up.

This is how thoughts and prayers is supposed to work.

Now, let’s see how this plays out.

Holy shit that’s genius. The coffee has been giggle dribbled down my chin.

I first thought this must be a real to scale plastic model, but it looks real.

Does he take it off the wall every morning to go to work

If it had Pamela Anderson painted on the side I would believe this is Jason Mendoza’s bud hole.

I definitely wouldn’t feel like it’s going to fall on me. Not at all.

You sound just like his ex!

nogooduser ,

I’m scared for the cat. He deserves whatever happens but the cat doesn’t.

Deiv ,

How do you know the cat didn’t hang the bike?

Viking_Hippie ,

Lack of opposable thumbs. Plus he prefers Kawasaki bikes.

Command hooks never fail!
