No need for film crews, professional voice actors, or expensive studio work. But is it really as good as it sounds?

When Ducati unveils a new motorcycle, the motorcycle world takes notice. But when it takes its aggressive V4 engine and puts it in a cruiser? That's when a real moto revolution begins!
