Hello all!
Hey there, I'm David. I live in Boston. I am coming off of 13yrs of riding Yammi's Hondas and Bmw.
This is my first Ducati. 05 S2R800. The motor is magic, the bike's attitude is rough. I like it.

Beautiful shot David!
And welcome! There's a North England local club you might be interested in so be sure to go check it out in the Local Clubs section.
Hi J,
Thanks. Its a long exposure [30sec]. I hit the shutter, jumped on the bike halfway through.
Heading over to local clubs right now
Cant find the New england club section, huh...

hello & welcome from another new englander :)
;D
Welcome to the DMF. I too went a long time before discovering the world of Ducatis. I guess the right machine and my journey needed to intersect at the right time. Ducatis appeal to the soul. You said it right, the magic and the attitude. [thumbsup]
Nice first Duc you got there!
nice ride and welcome [thumbsup]
Welcome David, great picture! [thumbsup]
Welcome fellow Dark rider [thumbsup]
Great pic, great bike, and KILLER exhaust! [thumbsup]
Hope you get some good riding in before the snowflakes fly.
welcome to the board.
Love the bike, but I am so, so sorry about the 'living in Boston' part. ;D
right on brother; a couple of years younger and louder .... [thumbsup]
Nice Pic ...
Now that floor; .... nicely refinished too; that's 10" pine?!??? ....lol I'm not allowed in the house on my softwood floors with my 800 dark ;D
Nice bike [thumbsup]
Nice bike! I actually made an offer on this one and almost bought it...ended up getting one in NJ the next day. Norfolk, right? In fact, I now have the tail bag that used to be on that bike!
I definitely remember the exhaust sound, very sweet...
Yes, I went from Boston down to Norfolk in a minivan to pick it up. Slept in the van at a Wally world parking lot. Withdrew cash. Test rode. Paid.
Yes, obsession.
Thanks all for the welcome!
In the winter the Ducati will be in the living room, getting various improvements, maintenance, some 30deg rides too.
