Ducati Monster Forum

Saw a red on red monster going west on 407 by Goodie Goodie booze shop (Highland Village) at 9:45ish am this morning.  Just got a glimps as it was hidden behind the cars coming at me, but I did notice no helmet on the dude.

Hmmm, doesn't sound like one of us. Anyone want to 'fess up?

Greenohawk69  (todd) rides a red 900 with no helmet.  

Brain on asphalt is not a working combo  :-X

I know Jacob, Been there done that have a scar to prove it. 

Helmet good!

Sorry for the 2 word post, just had to.

not i said the man w/ one good wheel. i like helmets they improve the chances of my head from losing a fight w/ pavement.

after sucking up a large part of the crash in AR with my face...i can't imagine doing something like that sans helmet...i would have lost half of my face had i not had on that humble scorpion bucket.  it was worth it's weight in gold (all $129 of it).  to each his own, i guess...but it doesn't make any sense to me at all to not at least wear a helmet.  plus i think chicks dig guys in gear.  /shrug

I'm out on 407 just about every day, and I was right there about that time, but I always have a helmet on....a reb/black one

No, I don't think it was you Centerline if you always wear a helmet.  When I was done at the bank and then taking the frontage road down to 1171, I saw the same bike get off of I-35 in front of me and make the big curve onto Valley Ridge to go east. I got the impression it was a test ride based on the zig zagging route.

On a side note, I had a good experience with the leather repair shop in Lewisville.  They sewed on a patch for me on my summer Hog jacket, nice price and done on time.  I'm going to bring my Duc jacket over there to have them add another snap to the collar area for when I wear a thicker throat cover. Wish Ducati had a summer leather jacket for women, looks like I'm going to go with the new Rev'it one.

Hey Taz Duc.... where/who  is the mentioned leather repair shop you write of. Thanx.

Hey Centerline the place is Old Town Lewisville Shoe Repair, 111 W. Main St, a few feet west of the intersection at Mill street in downtown Lewisville.  [thumbsup]

Yep, chics dig the gear, not the scars.

I'm pretty sure I've seen you around.  I live south of 1171, off of Shiloh Road.  I saw you or someone with a bike like yours on King's Road over there behind Bridalwood a few days ago.  I'm usually in my car, but I'll wave for sure if I'm on my bike.

Thanks much... must have gone by there 10,000 times w/o seeing it.
