Title: Beautiful Italian in my garage......
Post by Face on 09/08/15 at 20:51:42

And no, it's not Mpescatori... :P

As some of you know, I have a bit of an affinity for Italian motorcycles. Their performance, their sound, and their design, just temp me so bad, I can't help myself. I had to get another one. And of course, I have to show it off! ;)

It's a radical design, and not for everyone. Please let me know what you think. I love hearing other motorcyclists' opinions, pro and con. My new baby's nothing if not a great conversation piece!

And please don't call her a "bullet bike." She doesn't like it!

Hahaha! Love it! Nothin' like a good stereotype!

Yep, tubeless spoked wheels. If you look close, you can see they actually flipped the spokes around, hooking the bent end into a flange on the rim and the straight threaded end into very unique hubs.

Hey, Tocsik.... I'm gonna be in Denver first week of Oct. How's the weather for riding that time of year? I might see if the Ducati dealer has a demo unit they'll let me take out.

October is AMAZING in Colorado.  Still get temps in the upper 80's in the late afternoon with cool evenings.
Spring and Fall are just fantastic for riding here.  I grew up in San Diego where it's always riding season but I'll take Colorado any day.  Except about late December through early March  :-/.  Still plenty of riding days in that span but not as reliable.

Nice! But the spoked wheels look... uh, different. I'm just not used to that on a sport bike. Beautiful nonetheless!  ;)

That thing has more front brake than most cars, and I really like the rim design, spoke and tubeless, that's cool.

Hey, Face, congrats for the fine buy !

Er... are you sure you got the complete package ?
Are you sure you didn't forget/drop anything on the way home?
Italian bikes generally come with built-in navigator...  ;D

Some may remember, my last Ducati kind of did! But that's a story for another time. Didn't end too well.
