Hey guys I just wanted to say hello again and introduce myself, my name is James. The last time I posted I didn't put up any pics of my girl Nadia. I found Nadia in Ramsen NY, a very cold and blustery place. She's a 1997 M750, I brought her off of eBay, the only pics I had were the ones that the seller posted in the auction. She was advertised as a 97 M750 with 5600 miles and two dents on either side of the gas tank and a scratch on the right side of the tank. The seller said she didn't start because she needed a ignition wiring harness. There was a day left on the auction and the price was only 1000.00. I'd been wanting a monster for so long and I thought this is my chance. If she got to me and was a total piece of crap I figured I'd have a lot of ducati parts on my hands to sell. If she was as advertised then I'm in a good position. In the last few seconds of the auction I bid on Nadia and got her for 1700 shipped. I bought a ignition wiring harness while she was in transit, and when she got here I installed it. I turned the key, hit the starter button and the beast awakened ;D. Talk about the happiest man alive, we've been riding and modding happily ever after since.
