Massimo, you'll be happy to know that I did some research and the 998/748 forks are just a matter or milling the top triple so I put a bid in on a set.
You sound like my wife when she has to acknowledge that I was right all along.  "Well apparently the gods must have changed the laws of physics in your favor, because apparently it's just as you had said..."  |

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Hahaha well in the interest of full disclosure the 999/749/1098/1198/848 all require brake spacing or different calipers  |

Test rode an FZ8 over my lunch break in my continuing quest to see if there is a bike that fits me better than the Monster. I will say I was duly impressed by the bike's power, handling, and suspension.
I saw that one on some website or roadtest and it's one of the few new bikes that I see that I thought would be great to have - practical but also fast, and with modern but not over the top styling (Ducatician's new Triumph has the same aesthetic). Would make a great tourer. Not that I need another bike - but still, you know in 3 years there are going to be a couple of low mileage examples just begging to be scooped up. |

So all knowing all seeing Massimo, any insight on a spot to get my top triple milled?
I assume I might as well replace my head bearings while I have that removed?

I picked up a Cycle Cat blemished triple for $109 and a pair of used Ferracci bars for a hundy.
I know I'm not Massimo but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night......

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.
Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Word used to describe the successful act of attracting a person to such an extent that you would be able to snog or perhaps bone them if you so desired.
