Downsizing to one bike?
It's not so much about the bikes. Need cash.
Unfortunately that is becoming all too common these days :( Good luck with the sale!
Say it ain't so. Your kids are old enough to get a job, aren't they? Well, I wish I had the cash, I would buy the bike and let you ride every now and again.

They are old enough IMO, but they're just not self-starters.
Sorry to hear that Dave. I really wish you could sell the HD and keep a bike in the Ducati Family. Ultimately, you gotta do what you gotta do...

Thanks. I'm just having a one-day-only pity party. It feels like a big deal when I'm looking at -- or riding -- the bike. But when I look at my family & life in general, the bikes are just stuff, right? By the way, when the SBK sells, I'm planning on getting an older Monster to tie me over -- no intention of being out of the Ducati Family! Ducati is why I learned to ride in the first place!
Dave-
I really wish a few of us locals could chip in and take the bike off your hands as a group buy, you know to strip it down, bolt a bunch of frame sliders on it and turn it into one heluva track bike to trash around for awhile.
;D
Just kidding. Man I hate to see that thing go. It is the purdiest duc in town IMHO. My eyes go glossy every time I see it, right up until the time I pass you, then it's just the wind. ;D OK, I'll stop.
Like I said before, don't forget Im here to lend you a hand with any new/old Ducatis you might get into.
