European buyers got a good thing going here.

"Since October 2008 each client that buys a new Ducati in Europe has received a top of the range back protector, ready to be worn on any occasion, whether riding in the city, in the country or on track."

What a deal...   [thumbsup]

When are they going to do this in the States?

It's a cool program.   [thumbsup]  Good on Ducati for stepping up the plate about the importance of proper gear.

We asked about the program and whether it would be expanded to the US at the DOC Pres meeting.  The head of Duc marketing was non-committal, but I thought I heard something about it recently.  That could be my brain playing tricks.  There was also a request at the DOC pres mtg that current DOC members who already owned Ducs be allowed to purchase a back protector at cost.  Again, they were non-committal, but said they would consider it.
