It just gets worse.
I bet the thing sells for over $20K here and they'll sell every last one of them.

Talking to Superplush suspension never ends well for my wallet. New shock collar, new springs and possible re-valve for my SMC>Enduro conversion project.

Money spent on suspension is never money misspent.

Test rode the "Duke 125" . . .

Might have lowest grade Brembo components but, they do a pretty good job . . . but, $4800

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.
