been meaning to post this for a while, but always forgot to...

my gf lives in bangkok right now, and it just so happens that she lives in the same building as the guy who owns the ducati dealership down the street.  i met him, nice guy and all... but i have to say... i drooled over his bikes everytime i walked past them...

haha, and as you scroll down... i think you'll understand why Wink





























i fully expect to see a diavel the next time i'm there too... haha

haha, i just think that he probably gets them at a really steep discount and bypasses tax on them as a work expense prob...  vehicle tax in bangkok is something like 300%, so everytime you see a mini cooper there, it's the same price as a porsche here in the us...

i'm guessing he either registers them all under the company name and says they are all demo bike so he doesnt get hit with the charges... and then stores them all in his garage for when he wants to play with them...  haha

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

If he can afford all those bikes in Bangkok, he can afford a much bigger house to put all the bikes in.  If I were him, I'd be freakin' out about people laying hands on them.

pretty sure that he prob has another place to live... i think this is his place to stay during the weekdays for work.  it's a brand new building and it's literally a block or two up from the dealership.  prob just has it so he doesn't have to deal with bangkok traffic to go to work... and bangkok traffic is killer.

yes, but does he have a M620?

No?

Well then I guess that's one bike I have that he doesn't.  I win.

Must be nice when your first decision of the day goes like this.....

"Do I want to ride the 848 the 1098 or the 1198... sigh"

Did you notice the Lexus, BMW's, Porsches, Mercedes, etc..? He probably doesn't have much to worry about.

Nice collection though. No 748/916 era though   Cry
