Ducati Monster Forum

that i have to go back on what i said at Alan's BBQ...i am indeed jumping ship it seems...i've located a bike, but it's not what any of you probably ever thought you would see me on, and i can understand if you won't want to be seen with me any longer, and understandably so.

anyway  i always hate posts like this...so melodramatic and over-the-top and really just unnecessary, so i won't drag this out.  but, sadly, thanks to what i think was a good deal on a good bike, i pulled the trigger and if i have to relocate to another "crew", i'll understand.  you guys were all really cool, and i'll always remember the good times...and those make the beast with two backsing scrumptious ribs, alan.  keep up the good grillin'.   wt:

Well, at least they look like a greeeat group, Rich. wt:

Strokers-bargirls are hot!!  wt: I like making the HD people jealous with the D&D's!    :e:v  :e:v

Dungeons & Dragons?

oh....right, sorry.  pics.  i figured i would try to clean it up some, so that you weren't too repulsed by it.  don't have my camera right now, though...will put up a shot soon when i can.

Well are you going to tell us or do we have to wait until tomorrow??  ???

You effing tease... what bike is it?

at least the specs? year? model? color? (aren't they all black? lol), mileage? come on sport

How convenient... Are you cooking up some rice?

mmm, rice sounds good right now

Won't you be hungry when you wake up at 2 in the morning to start your "bike"??

You mean you ate all the BBQ already??  It probally didn't even make it home, did it??

well, still no camera, but here's a recent pic from the prev. owner...it's not cleaned up and looking 100% hotness....but hopefully a couple of you will still be okay with being seen in public with me.  i'll understand if you want me to leave though...no hard feelings.

Congrats! be::

I wanna ride it!! ;D

So, Rich, ya ridin' her out tonight to the dinner meet? ;D  mo:t:  ;D

Phew! I thought you got a HD for a second there.

Nice ride dude. Can't wait to see/hear/smoke it.   :e:v  ;:|

That may have been me!  :)

Nice ride McKraut!  ...The old carby EssEss's are great bikes.
I believe I saw that one at the dealer not that long ago. (can't remember what they were doing to it -but you probably have the receipt for that)

Good luck with it.  I've been through mine end-to-end.  If you come up with any quirks/questions/etc. lemme know.

Hey Rich is that the one from Eurosport?

I see what you did there... (http://forums.offtopic.com/images/smilies/squint.gif)

ya I was kinda worried at first... but I knew he would pull through!

how cool is that! Nice snag. Hope u make it to Uncle Julios tonight. That'll be worth the ride over!

Ah, you chose the SS. Congrats man wt:

Bring it tonight.  It is sooo purdy. wt:

cdc

Dammit - how cool is that?!? 

You know I was just thinking about SS Ducatis the other day; when I first thought about getting a motorcycle about 5 years ago, buying a Ducati seemed completely out of reach for me... The mental picture of a Duc was the SS; the epitome of "sportbike" in my mind at the time  8)

I'm really glad you found this one, Rich - couldn't ask for a more cool ride.  Way to go  be::

Let's ride!!!

Yeah, bring it, bring it!!!  :P

Looks like SP but wheels are either after market or powdercoated white... 95 or 96?

96 (it's #921), but i'm thinking the wheels were a pull-off from something else; they're marchesini, and not in the best shape...dings and just wear in general.  they could definitely use a trip to a powder-coater.

nice pick up!

I know a powder coater!  Will be going there next week!  Big dicount on black!!!  You could do black with red rim tape. But he does all colors.

Nice score dude!   wt:

He's back with a VENGEANCE! Good job wt:
