Incredible.

He bought the ultimate poseur bike to match his ultimate poseur car.

The exhaust will melt the wheels on that bike...surprised it hasn't happened yet.

1 water bottle cage. poseur.

wow, that massive stack of spacers under the stem...

What car is it?

What car is it?

probably a Gallardo

i think it's pronounced gayardo, or something like that. the 2 'l's are pronouced like a y

Not in Italian. Just Spanish.

yea, it's the Gallardo (/ɡalˈlaɾdo/)
Awesome pic!!

IT would be so much cooler if he had a roof rack instead of the trunk one.

Wonder if the swapped the carbon steering tube for an aluminum.

You know that ain't no Brooks Imperial. I betcha his *ahem* hurts with the saddle so high.

my brother and i discussed it the roof is to narrow for any rack and it looks like ****

Narrow roof for a narrow head. Dude can't even stop behind the line. :rolleyes:

I saw a Porsche with a factory bike rack. Awesome...

agreed.

Not like he/she's gonna ride it or anything like that :rolleyes:

Roger the Car Salesman: My name's Roger, Sir. May I be of some help?
Memphis: That's funny, my name's Roger... Two Rogers don't make a right.
[laughs]
Memphis: Roger, I have a problem...
Roger the Car Salesman: Yes?
Memphis: I've been in L.A. for three months now. I have money, I have taste. But I'm not on anybody's "A" list, and Saturday night is the loneliest night for the week for me.
Roger the Car Salesman: Well, a Ferrari would certainly change that.
Memphis: Perhaps, Mmmm. But, you know, this is the one. Yes, yes yes... I saw three of these parked outside the local Starbucks this morning, which tells me only one thing. There's too many self-Indulgent wieners in this city with too much bloody money! Now, if I was driving a 1967 275 GTB four-cam...
Roger the Car Salesman: You would not be a self-indulgent wiener, sir... You'd be a connoisseur.
Memphis: Precisely. Champagne would fall from the heavens. Doors would open. Velvet ropes would part

PS
I know that isn't a ferarri...

I betcha his *ahem* hurts with the saddle so high.

The saddle only looks high due to the goofy compact geometry. It's actually only slightly above the level of the flats of the bars.

I have a bike with the saddle higher than that, and it's perfectly comfortable, even in the drops.

You're crampin' my style, X. :notamused:

Ah, a Lamborghini. Never seen that model before. Looks nice.

I too wonder how it has avoided deformation from that exhaust. It's gotta come out anywhere from 500-1200F depending on various circumstances... Oh well, paint me jealous, anyway.

The resin holding the carbon together is not too fond of heat either.
Not a bike I would care to buy on the used market.

Spare wheels in the car?

Spare wheels in the car?

I seriously doubt if there's room in the car for a couple of spare wheels.

he probably takes the bike down to the old olympic track or something, does a couple of laps, takes it home and stashes it for another two weeks....jumps back in the car with his blond bimbo and vrooms off....

Maybe, in between all that, he sits down on his Texas Instruments TI-99/4A and plays a mean round of Hunt the Wumpus.....

I seriously doubt if there's room in the car for a couple of spare wheels.Maybe he opens the rear hatch and stows them in there. You know, on top of the engine.

Poseur.

Doesn't he know the bike is supposed to be worth more than the vehicle it's strapped to?

Sheesh, people ... perhaps I'm jaded from living in a city where Ferraris, Porsches, and Bentleys no longer turn heads (a Yugo would turn more heads than a Porsche, although I've only seen one McLaren Merc SLR on the road so that'd work too), but why give this guy/gal so much attention and strife?
It's obvious they have much disposable income - great for them - perhaps they even earned it through considerable risk and a great amount of hard work .. but aside from that, they could be just like you or me (except for taste in cars :innocent:). And it's possible that they could be devoting as much time and energy to doing the best that they can on the bike, too...

I know if I had a few million to thrash around, I certainly wouldn't be putting around on my second-hand scooter. Cut them some slack.
You can't take it with you, so those who are wealthy-enough should go ahead and enjoy what they have.

Or perhaps I'm just naive. *shrug*

That's only is CO...:p

At least he rides. *shrug

I find it strange that he has enough money for a Lambo but doesn't have another more cycle-friendly car (maybe it's in the shop though).

That's pretty cool. Fast car, fast bike.

Duhh...(drool)...(pick nose)...uhh,...I tink dat's a cooo car; b-b-but wha's da ting on da butt of it...?

Y'know, a hitch rack on a Lambo is either a.)just plain wrong; or b.)Style Man's ultimate, over-the-top kick in the teeth to the posers.

Can't expect much as far as the driving style is concerned; after all, it's a Lambo -- more money than a lot of us see in a decade! Such a lofty soul can't be bothered with trivia like traffic laws and mores'....

Nice pic, tho....

Where are the ZIPPs?

At least he feels fast...
