Title: The hunt is OVER!
Post by: billy9304 on June 10, 2008, 07:15:50 PM
Well I found my bike and the deal will be done at some point this week. You really know you found the right seller when you walk into a garage and there are so many Ducs that you look twice to make sure it isn't Brians garage! No pics yet but I will by this weekend when I pick it up.  [drink]

After staring at your 999  I got yellow envy so I bought an extremely clean ST4 with matching bags, corbin saddle and risers, in the fastest color of course. Ah whens the next AR trip? My back can't wait.

well, more of a guideline than a rule.  you know this was told to me by an irishman, right?   [thumbsup]

still, it is the best way to avoid the "you know they are your kids too" discussion.   [moto]

Cool, that makes three yellow STs in our group.  Steve and mine are both yellow STs.

His name is Stuart and he's been around the ducati world here abouts for a long time so some may know him. The ST4S is an 02 and doesn't have a scratch, unfortunately its a slightly slower model in red. He doesn't have it listed anywhere now. He and his wife used to tour on the 2 st4's together. Talking to him later on today so if you want I can pass along his info charles.

Ha Ha Ha.  I hear it can catch up to the yellow bikes when on the brakes. 

I was looking for an '03 with ABS.  Those bikes are as rare as hen's teeth.  No one seems to be selling theirs.  DO you know what he wants for it?  What else does he have to sell?  Please pass on his contact info.

I hate Stu has not seen my latest project.
I think it would make him laugh, and maybe shake his head a little... .

I used to stop in sometimes -just to bug him.

I would trust a "used" bike from him better than a new one.

I don't think its the same Stu that you are thinking of.  I believe this Stuart lives in Arlington?

You are correct.  I caught up with some of the family of "the Stu I was thinking of"...
And it is not him.

Although the Stuart you are talking about is doing really well.  He's enjoying retirement and is now able to finish some bike projects that he can finally finish.

Hey, wait a minute! I leave town for a week and come back to find an empty spot in my garage!!! What's up with that?? [laugh] Congrats Billy on the new bike!! [clap] Those STs are really nice and yes, they do look uber comfy. I also see a Arkansas trip in your future. Better start working on the "kitchen points" my friend especially with a new baby around the house (the kid NOT the bike!). Sounds like your world is getting in perfect alignment... family wise as well as scooter wise. You rock bro!! [thumbsup]
