The Ducati family grows.
Wife kinda surprised me today while shopping for parts.
We see a nice silver 1998 ST2 at the Ducati shop for a good price.
She says "Want it?" really? uh yeah.

So get plate and insurance this week, the shop will clean her up, and Monday she comes home.

Now, just have to make room for the Monster, ST and BMW in a one-car garage  bang head

I'm extremely jealous as I've wanted one for years, but been too cheap to pull the trigger when decent ones have come up for sale.

looking forward to seeing pictures.
