Hi DMF!
My name is Rob, I live in GA and am 20 years old. The first time I saw a ducati, I fell in love with them.
Ive been riding for a few months now. I bought a 1999 m900 back in Febuary and love it completly. I quickly became introduced to the DML and all you great people before everything happened. You guys always gave me great advice and helped out with some starting problems! I really am glad to know of a great great Ducati message board filled with guys who really know motorcycles. I'm a newbie and will be asking a lot of questions that might seem dumb. :-\ ....future mods coming up...
I recently had my first fall and had little injury to myself and the duc. Happy to get that out of the way. [bang]
Glad to be here!

Happy to get it out of the way? I hope I never have to get it out of the way! Who am I kidding, I spun the back tire in my friggin driveway yesterday due to the rain. On a good note, I made it all way the way up north (in the rain) to the shop where I have a guy building up a set of custom pipes for me *grins like an idiot*.
Look at the bright side, since you need a new clutch lever, this is the perfect time to go aftermarket ;D. Good luck and don't forget to keep that pesky rubber side down.
Welcome Rob, glad you found your way over here. ;D

Sorry to hear that, you're in good company (http://ducatimonsterworldwide.org/index.php?topic=3151.0) though. :)
Hope the injury is not too bad and you heal up quickly. Post up if you need any advice on fixing your bike.

YAY CARBIE 900's! I love my bike, too. Just a little helpful hint. The electrical system on the bike is a bit leaky, so if you're not going to be riding for 2 weeks, it's best just to throw the battery on a tender to be on the safe side.
Welcome!
