Title: Bought my first Duc
Post by: freeclimbmtb on February 14, 2010, 07:56:32 PM
Names Phil, living up in Portsmouth New Hampshire. [beer]  Been riding a '75 Kawasaki KZ400 for about 5 years, just got my degree and entered the working force last June so I decided to buy the bike Ive wanted since I got my MC licence.  Red 2009 Ducati Monster 696!! ;D  Ive decided as long as the dealer is keeping it warm, Id best let them hold it till the warm weather so Im not tempted to take it out while salt is still on the road.  Well thats me, and thats my new ride!

Welcome Phil, congrats on your new purchase! [thumbsup]

Looking forward to your photos and updates when your weather warms up. ;D

When you get a chance make sure you check in with your local board, NEMHA (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?board=26.0).

Oh, and I'd love to see a picture of your Kawi if you have any, we have a project '79 KZ400, fun little thing. :)

As a matter of fact I have a bunch of pictures.  I did a sort of resto-mod with it, kept it pretty stock, changes were mostly aesthetic.  Is there a more appropriate thread to post them?

You can post them here, or in the Official Bikes of the DMF (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=205.0) thread, or start a new thread in General (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?board=1.0) (we all enjoy bike pictures, believe me nobody will mind at all).   Looking forward to seeing them. [thumbsup]

Alright I posted a bunch of pictures from the KZ build as well as a few of the new Duc in the "official bikes of the DMF" thread.  (After waging a small war against webshots...who provides a link to a thumbnail as a default?  >:( [bang])
