Ducati dealership in la brea. They have their big demos once a month but from what one of the dealers told me, you can try out their demo bikes any time.

But your right about the narrowness. You can tell just by looking at it.

Narrow? Compared to an I4 maybe. Not compared to my 650R or the 1125R.
