Finally found the ultimate girly Ducati--1198s, Red of course.

It has been 4 weeks and 1,500 miles of thrills.  Third ride was 600 mile round trip to Paso Robles, CA and I have never had a motorcycle this intutitive to ride, evah!  Really delightful on mountain roads, she was born to "twist", and even though she requires fuel about every 110 miles, I just have to plan accordingly.

Even though I am small (5'3", about 120 lbs), I can touch the floor, and prefer one foot down anyway.  So far, everything is stock save for my newly installed Termi slip ons.

This bike is a far cry from my 2001 M600, which I flogged mercilessly for 5 years, and some of you that I have ridden with know this to be oh so very true.  It feels wonderful to get revenge with all that lovely torque.  I still have my Monster and hope that one day my husband will have time and inclination to ride with me.

Here are some pics.
