I haven't been keeping up with Ducati news for the past few months, nor have I been reading any forums. But I just heard a rumor that Ducati was purchased by Diamler over the weekend.

If true, that would be excellent because they don't d*ck with a good thing, just provide support and a little direction. Where did you hear that?

"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.
