It's advertising bullshit on both pages. How many races has the RC8 won and how many championships has Nicky won on Ducatis wearing Ducati apparel? No offense to either company. I like both... and Nicky. Just advertising BS... so what's different? Certainly no need to feel ashamed. Grin

I've met you in person. You should be ashamed, but not about the advertisement.

^LOL.  In any case, I guess I was referring to the fact that the sole advertisement in the magazine for Ducati was related to their apparel!  Doesn't make any sense to me.  Are their clothes more important than their bikes now?  Oh well.  Don't know who in the hell approved this.

I don't see how its more important - they are featuring a world champion rider, the bikes are implied.

They probably make more money in t-shits than with the bikes.
