Title: Ducati Monster Bible Book Pre-order
Post by: venomousr1993 on December 21, 2010, 05:31:17 PM
Saw this today while thumbing around on Amazon.  Dosen't come out till July 2011, but they are taking pre-orders.  Looks like it could be a pretty decent addition to the coffee table or bookshelf.

I ordered one last christmas, was expecting it last month.  Just received an email from amazon that they are trying to locate a copy for me.  They must be waiting for 10,000 orders or something before they print a run.  I would be frustrated, but knowing what it is like waiting for ducati stuff, I have grown a lot of patience.  There's pretty much no way that I've found to actually contact a live person to find out what's going on.  On the account manager, it just gives you the option to cancel the order.  Anyone else have the same experience?

Should have used a classic Monster for the cover.

From the review:

And I have to say, the original Monsters are meaner, leaner and cooler looking than latest iteration, which appears to me to be a bit like a smiley-face Dove bar eating, Starbucks-drinking iPhone version of the original Monstah.

Yeah but it's cheaper on Amazon UK.  £18.39 compared to £30 from the publisher.

+11 billion on that...


Of course with all the recent posts and threads regarding the new Gen monster ( and accompanying newb questions/silly comments regarding new vs. Old(?) )... I'd venture to say there's a growing rift between the new breed and classic styled Monsters..

Putting a New monster on the cover would make sense to try and capture the eye/interest with both new Monster owners and prospective buyers...

or maybe I should quit mixing pain meds and good beer before getting on the 'puter......  ;D

Just received mine today! 

Looks good so far.  It's a nice weather weekend, so I'll be riding and not reading.
