That thing is sick! Nice pick up, what Ducati did you have that you sold?

 

[iman501]

which ducati did you have Wolf?....

I picked up a Daytona a few months ago to (havn't really ridden it yet though.... it needs a few little mods first it'll be all back together soon and on the road however!)

I had picked up an 01 Ducati 750M

The gunmetal monster. It was high miles and I had to get a new chain, sprockets, and battery before I could even ride it. I only put 10 miles on it before I decided to sell for another Buell, but that didn't exactly work out lol.


Love the gold, I went to the Triumph dealer to see if they had any used deals and he almost hooked me on a 2012 Daytona 675. It was the black with gold accents, luckily it was rain/snowing when I went to look.

you would have been in trouble if it was nice out! i've had mine out like twice so far before it tore it all apart again. The engine is pretty sweet in the 675, but I've realized i desperately need to adjust the suspension for my weight, it was a very very stiff ride! What was it that you did not like about the Ducati?...

 

[wolfo68]

I liked the Monster, it really just didn't have the sportiness that I wanted and I wasn't diggin the maintenance on em.

So far I'm highly impressed with it. I drove it over to get it licensed and of course it started snowing on me. Didn't have the bill of sale with so I'll have to make the trip again later.

It was slightly chilly but the wind blocking on this bike even beat the full fairing on the R, definitely runs way cooler though.
