Title: 999 is gone... =(

I no longer a owner of two Ducati's... (for right now at least).
But I'm glad it went to a good person.

The way the economy is going I don't see Ducati staying in the fray, business wise...someone prove me wrong, please. Please!!...

I hope in some capacity they stick around as they have in tough times in the past.
I never thought I would consider packing ammo cans with timing belts, dessicant, and purging the O2 out...

Hey, someone prove me wrong, please. Please!! Glad I don't own a MV Agusta... Harley can't save them! Major heartache for all the bike companies for sure. :P

I'm so close to calling thread jack on this one.  And on the second post after the original.... for shame!

Other than assuming Ducati will be having problems like most everybody else, I haven't heard of Ducati being highly impacted.  Do you think they are really at risk?  I'm totally out of the loop on their business operations nowadays.

Now, back on topic...

Thanks James for trusting me with your trackbaby.  Very excited about getting it.  Never thought I'd own a Ducati track bike.  Can't wait to get her tuned up and back in shape so I can start wearing out some tires.  [thumbsup] 
Good luck with your school and such, you'll be stocking your garage again before you know it.

I'm just teasing you, cuz you're the anti threadjacker. Not that there's anything wrong with that!!
