My name is Lee Hopper.
I live in Columbus, Mississippi.
I just purchased a 2009 696. I'll post pics soon. I purchased it an Insurance auction in Charleston South Carolina. It's kinda scratched up as if someone ran it through a barbed-wire fence, but no really bad damage. It has a clear title and it's showing only 614 miles. Something about the mileage seems a little too good to be true. I guess I'll find out soon if the bike has any real mechanical issues. I took it out for a ride today and it seemed to run fine.
I just turned 40 in December, so I've been riding for a little over 36 years. I got my first Suzuki for my fourth birthday. I've rarely been without a bike since then.
I have always wanted a Ducati, and now it is reality.
I look forward to interacting on the forum, but most importantly I look forward to riding my Ducati!!! Dragon here I come!
Welcome aboard Lee Hopper [thumbsup]
