  All in all, with a few basic mods it feels like it could be a fun ride.


That sums it up pretty nicely.
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Bill said they don't discount Ducs until they are at least a model year old...regardless of how must dust they have accumulated on the showroom floor... ???

Go ask him how that Matt Fox deal worked out for him.   [laugh] [laugh]
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Plus it will be interesting to watch how the sale of the 1098SF-S goes.    [popcorn]

I have to start proofing my posts!
My people skills are just fine.
It's my tolerance to idiots that needs work.

Was that yesterday (Sunday)?  I did not ride on Monday (9/2).  But must be a cool monster too.

I am a new ducati monster owner. Are there any ducati groups on the island? I see quite a few monsters out here.

Unfortunately there are no real Ducati groups, per se.  There are the three of us ( Fighter Pilot Gene. Sta Jing and myself, Rick-Mac, and occasionally Kary on his Streefighter that get together on Sunday mornings. Getting any other Duc riders together has proved to be like herding cats. The riding styles and abilities are too disparate to get everyone to gel at least for one ride a month.  We did that for almost a year one time but it started to fall apart quickly. Effete racer types don't mix with cruiser types or newbies. You are always welcome to go with our group and we try to mix it up a bit. Some cruise, some stealth and some quick stuff ( or what passes for quick to us anyway.   [laugh] )

MD is only running the Red/Silver R12S while the 848 is waiting in the wings.  Or, in the extreme present sense, waiting at the shop.   [roll]

Yes, Sunday at that station just 1/4 up from Castle hospital.  I saw MD pushing his BMW up to the front pump...I recognized his red & silver stripes.  I thought it Sta just ahead of him....maybe it was FP...
This was around 12:30
