What Happens When a Paddle-Tire Ducati Superbike Hits Deep Snow?

If you've kept up with mad enduro rider Matt Spears in recent time, then you know he's game for a whole lot of wild creations that pretty much no one else would build. Most recently, he got his hands on a totaled Ducati Panigale. The motor was still very much good, though the bodywork and frame had definitely seen better days.

So naturally, he did what absolutely no one else would do, and turned it into a dirt bike of sorts. As a dirt bike, it's both ridiculously overpowered and a bit of a chonky boy. That's not the point, though; the point is clearly the fun.

That was a few weeks ago, though, so what new challenges has Spears attempted to crush since? Remember the guys at BUM (which itself spun off from Grind Hard Plumbing Company)? Well, it turns out that they've brought their CBR1000RR-powered three-wheeler out to play in the snow, and Spears is down to challenge them with the Panigale.

Good idea? You be the judge.
