A new Duc fan
 
Awesome ride today!!! Besides the weather being absolutely perfect and totally un-July like GA weather...it was about 80, air felt cool going down the road...perfect.

Oh, and I'm now a Ducati fan, since my customer that buys a bike from us every few months offered to have me come ride with him after getting his '09 R1 a month ago. He also has a Streetfighter and I was kidding with him about letting me come ride and he said sure come on!! I called him this morning and we did 50 miles since he was kind of tired but I had a freakin blast!!!!! That is one light, nimble, torquey ride! Here are a few pics...

It was the first Ducati I've gotten to ride and i'm impressed. Wish I was a good enough rider to really wring it out some but it's still in the break in period anyway he said. Just turned 1k on it while we were riding today. I'm still :D 5 hours later :lol:

That's a purty motorcycle!

I'm a huge Duc fan now that I have one I can ride whenever I want. :lol: :D

Forgot to mention he also has this sitting in his garage...

TM 450, if it was street legal I'd have to talk him into a ride on it too!!!

Good looking ride. Do you need to remove the exhaust cans to get the rear wheel off? If so I'm surprised the don't run a high mount system like they do on some of the Monsters.

Eric, you pretty much said exactly what every bike mag has said in their reviews

I'd guess you would have to remove them to get the wheel off from looking at it. I think it would look better if you could see the wheel too but it's still a sweet ride!

Awesome bike. A clear alternatives setup will clean up that tail perfectly.

A Ducati Streetfighter with embarrassingly wide chicken strips....the shame. :td:

Someone get that poor bike out and ride it the way it was INTENDED to be ridden....STAT!! :lmao:

(Having said that, I'm still jealous that you got to ride it and I didn't. :lol: )
