those are some gorgeous bikes... I had the change to buy a Mille R, junk plastic, but otherwise minty for 2500$ and i passed it up... Figured id spend double that just getting fairings. now im kicking myself for it.

Very nice collection indeed... specially the testastrettas R, that thing is very rare and a rare year to. But are you sure it is a real "R"? I dont see a dry clutch

Who needs that many bikes? You can't ride 'em all at the same time.

I thought the R came with a powdercoated frame?

the more I look at it the more it's the real deal, while dry, the clutch was covered and not vented. everything looks right on that bike the color is correct frame, body panels, wheels, suspension

I think thats a ferrari in the garage but I can't say for sure. Tail lights look to be from a ferrari and its red so I'd say Ferrari. Anyone else have a guess?
