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

Yes, they are operating as a U.S. based company but reading some sections of their web site gives me the feeling that English is not their first language. That, in and of itself, is no sin. But couple that with a few of their contradictions, and failure to state country of origin for their parts concerns me. If I am going to buy parts from China I would just as soon as deal with someone that is up front about it.

Ditto MonsterParts being a great company!!!

Bought a set of volar for the non Duc... Jt sprockets have never worn as fast as that notional steel.  Broken teeth and totally thrashed the rear sprocket in about 6000 miles.

Normally I change them early at 10k, stock sprockets and chain on that bike went 20k+.
