That bike hated me but I like the ss's quite a bit.

I think ducati should make them again.

In the meantime I may just build my own.

YES!
I'm thinking another 750 SS.

I miss the low maintenance/tire costs.

I think 90-100 whp would be the ticket.

That's too much to be stingy with tires.

My 996 only has 110 maybe.

I'm thinking a whopping 60. ;D

I know where there's an awesome 800 with flatslides, but it's way out of my price range.

I could buy tires for a long time before I'd see the break even point.

I'm pretty partial to the 996.
