If you have a serious need for two-wheeled speed (and about $160,000 burning a hole in your pocket), there's a custom-made all-carbon fiber Ducati 999S for sale at Jameslist. The ultra-luxe motorcycle is in Switzerland, but it was modified by BeFaster in Hanover, Germany.

The carbon fiber Ducati 999S features a 1037 cc tuned engine with 170 horsepower. Its light body gives the Ducati the ability to accelerate from 0-60 mph in under 3 seconds.
