"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Just like this guy, trying to advertise a base 999 as an "S".

Well, it's not an S. It's a base 999 with either S decals or fairing side panels. Dead give away is the suspension and the brakes.

Hello Andrew

I am very sorry to hear about your son.  Of course you want to get rid of the bike soon.

Can you tell me if the factory rotobulscrotum is still attached?  Some people remove them.  I could not tell from the photos, could you send me more photos of the bike to verify?

I am very amenable to your offer and wish to consumate our union immediately

Please reply

Subject: RE: 2005 Ducati bike

I`m located in Helena Montana(the bike is here with me)right now because i got a new job here,the thing is i`m  very busy and i don`t have time to stay and meet with all my potential buyers, that is why i gave to a shipping company that will ship it to the next owner(on my cost). I will make the deal only to eBay. I am a member of the eBay buyer protection program and using this service you will get a 7 days testing period after delivery. During that 7 days testing period I will not be getting any money. I need to know if you are interested in buying it so I can ask eBay to send you the details on how this works. If interested please include in your next email your contact info for eBay (full name,  full address) so we can get things started.
Thanks,

Andrew

and he attached photos of someone's 999!
