World's most expensive Thumper

It's not a Duke or Svartpilen. Its an Horex with a full carbon fiber frame.

Carbon fiber is great for bicycles because it absorbs vibration, but I would not want a carbon fiber motorcycle.
For me, chromo and aluminum work just fine on a motorcycle. I'd rather put money into the upgrading the engine.
