My name is Mike and I live in the Hartford CT area. I just purchased a 2003 M800sie from a guy (oldbrit) in RI. This is the first bike I've owned, but was riding a 2010 kawasaki ninja 250 and honda rebel 250 for the last year. I got the Ducati bug when I had the opportunity to ride a 696 with termi's at a demo day. I was hooked after that and knew I wanted a Monster.
I'll most likely be trolling the forum for info etc, but thanks in advance for any help offered and gleaned.
Welcome Mike, congrats on your M800! [beer]
I see you already introduced yourself to your local group. [thumbsup] Hope you can meet up with some of them soon.
Oh, you'll find that we love bike pictures here so feel free to share if you like. ;D
