Hi,

My name is Dave and I purchased my first Duc. on 5-17-2008. It's a 06 620 W/a whopping 1,200 miles on her. I've been riding since 1985 . I recently sold two of my bikes ( 98 600cbr smoking Joe and 04 600cbr) I still have my speed triple though. I fell in love with the Duc due to it's torq , light weight ,handling ,and looks. I'm 5'6 @ 142lbs and love the triple but find it a wee bit heavy for "full carving".

Any insight on these machines would be greatly appreciated!


 Thanks in advance,

  Dave

Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

Thanks for the warm welcome!!!!!!!

I don't have ant pics yet. Wait a min.......................................... OK I have some now. Keep in mind it's a stocker. The pics aren't that good , I just opened the door to the garage and snapped some.

Forgive the mess in the garage ( it's killing me too!!!!!! )



A  little closer shot


Closer yet


The only thing I've had a chance to do to it so far was replace the black wire ties W/red ones ( It was bothering me something fierce ) I've ordered GPR oval TI high mounts for it along with bar end mirrors.
Those damn reflectors on the forks are leaving,so are the ones on the over populated plate mount. Unfortunately everything will be going to be on hold for a month . I'm leaving for Brazil tomorrow for work Wink
