The one in front is a ducati 999 I believe, but it could be a 749, you could get either in yellow.  You can tell by the particular style of undertail exhaust.  Oddly enough I saw my first 999 in person today when a bunch of bikes stopped by my work.  The camera guy is on a gixxer it looks like, probably a 1000, but maybe a 750.  He needs a slipper clutch with his poor downshifts, but he'd be better off if he just figured out the right way to do it, or didn't worry so much about revving it so high.  I do like the way he flicks it so quickly into the turns though, very much like my style.  Probably the last time I rode like this (crossing the double yellows and such) was the time I had the privelage of holding up a 220lb friend on the side of a steep cliff for way too long.  I was following him, my friend following me, but we both held back when he passed riders in the wrong lane in a blind corner.  Several corners later we found him and 2 other guys down.  Well, the 2 guys were at the top of the hill, we didn't know he went over till I heard the death moan a ways down in the bushes.  Good times!
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!
