Title: That's it for me - who needs stuff? Post by: Razzo Bolognese on June 17, 2010, 08:25:01 AM I'm going to miss the hell out of riding. Hell, I already do & I can't even twist a throttle yet. Still, now is the time for me to sell my stuff to fix my bike & start paying some bills. So I have all this really nice stuff that I think belongs on a Ducati rider. Before I offer it all to strangers or even put together an official "for sale" page (here, ebay, cl, whatev) I figured I'd give the local boys (and girls) a crack at it. My size is 5 '7", about 155 lbs. I need to sell:
2 Battery Tenders waterproof bike cover Kryptonite NY lock Alpinestars Black leather riding jacket - very used, in good condition Custom made black leather pants by Z Custom Leathers in Cali (barely used) Dianese size 10 boots (barely used) Joe Rocket Size 10 boots (used once, boot won't fit under a stock Ducati Monster shit lever) Waterproof insulated gauntlets (small) by Joe Rocket headlight filament summer shorty gloves - barely used sweet large magnetic tank bag airpump, cargo nets, clutch springs, stock shift levers, buncha rags odds & ends that I'd happily part with if you buy something big. I also have to fix & sell my bike, so I am open to trades. She needs: Turn signal Napoleon (ish) mirror Foot brake lever (either fixed or replaced) Hey anybody wanna buy a Ducati Monster? She's good! Please feel free to IM or email me. -Dan Title: Re: That's it for me - who needs stuff? Post by: He Man on June 17, 2010, 11:08:20 AM What happened????
Title: Re: That's it for me - who needs stuff? Post by: Razzo Bolognese on June 17, 2010, 01:33:20 PM 4/13 I was on 18th St. before 5th Ave. I was driving in the parked car lane when the light changed. A cab swerved into my lane (possibly to stop me from getting in front of all the traffic or possibly because he's the worst driver ever) and I swerved to avoid the cab. Maybe I also braked, maybe I hit some debris. Either way I slow-mo fell to the right, squishing my foot & my hip and fracturing the sh!t out of my forearm just above the thumb into seven or so pieces. On 4/21 they put in a piece of cadaver bone and a big chunk of titanium. I put a link to my x-ray so you don't have to see if you don't want to. The bike is barely and only cosmetically hurt.

Sorry to hear about your spill. Hope you heal fast. I hate NYC cabbies...[bang]...always cutting people off. You in the city? Let me buy you a beer. Title: Re: That's it for me - who needs stuff? Post by: tommys67 on June 18, 2010, 12:41:28 PM I am so sorry to hear this, Dan. I really hope you heal up soon, and I'm sorry you're giving up on riding.
Let me know if you need anything - pretty sure you have my cell. [thumbsup] Title: Re: That's it for me - who needs stuff? Post by: Amlethae on June 18, 2010, 07:06:51 PM Dude. Really sorry to hear about this. Huge fear of mine these stupid cabbies, gypsy-cabbies (the worst in my experience), and stupid truck drivers... not to mention all the other cagers on the road. Hope you heal fast. If I get any good karma saved up I'll send some your way!
Title: Re: That's it for me - who needs stuff? Post by: Howie on June 23, 2010, 05:10:51 PM I just wanted to post that I visited Dan today. He is doing well and is in good spirits. I visited his bike too. Absolutely no major damage, only the smallest ever, well, I wouldn't even call it a ding on the tank, well hidden by the perfectly intact mat black finish. Other than that, a banged up mirror, some lever damage, heal guard, one missing signal lens (not for long) and that is about all I remember, The bike starts up as soon as you hit the starter button and settles into a perfect idle. Not much mileage was put on this bike since it had a complete major service including timing belts, so most will have a good year's ride before service is needed again. This is a great bike for someone out there. A classic with fuel injection, but none of the closed loop issues. I will probably regret not buying this bike. Then again...
Title: Re: That's it for me - who needs stuff? Post by: Razzo Bolognese on July 08, 2010, 11:44:12 AM Thanks everybody! It's not like I don't wanna ride anymore, it's just that I crumple from low speed accidents. A couplea weeks ago I took a bone density test. I failed. :'( So far I posted up about a couplea boots on the Suspects Unlimited sales area. Honestly the Joe Rocket Boots are not good for a Monster rider, but the Dianese are the best boots EVER! If you guys need anything in particular, I probably have it. Thanks again for everything!
