Wifey took me down to the Ducati dealership to pick up my bright and shiny anniversary present...
HOOOOOLY shit does this thing go like crazy. It handles like it is one rails, brakes stop like mad, powerband is nuts and it does ludicrous speed in first. The only downside is that she isn't happy doing slower than 50. Friggin' first gear is geared way too tall for cruising in town anywhere. After break-in and my trip home and back I'm going to have to get a bigger rear sprocket to keep my license safe...r.
I'm still in a daze and the shock of owning this bike still hasn't kicked in. I look at it and my brain keeps telling me, "No way do you own that, dude. Whose bike is that?" I guess I've spent too much time looking at photos and dreaming for reality to settle in just yet.
