Hello,
I've just bought a pristine low-mileage 09 M1100S which is my first Ducati. I've been riding a BMW R1100S for nearly 15 years, mostly in Central California, but I've now re-located to The Gulf Coast. I've only put a few miles on the Duc so far, and I'm amazed at how different two 1100S' twins with similar bhp and torque can feel. The Monster is well named! It feels so small and ballsy compared to the BMW. I've dolled the new bike up with a few farkles, and now that the weather has improved I will focus on learning how to ride it. I bought LT Snyder's manual and I'm learning about some of the routine maintenance. I look forward to learning more about the bike on this forum.

Welcome to the site. A fun place to be when not riding.
I used to be in Lemoore, CA two decades ago on a CB750. It was always 2 hours to anywhere.
Now I'm in WI waiting for it to warm up another 30 degrees.
