So is this the start of the next iteration of Ducatista Monsteritis modification basis?  Tailchop anyone?  Shortened exhaust cans?  Custom paint?  Remove the mirrors and... so who is going to be the first?  Would you let your kid ride an "stock" Ducati?

I wonder if we can get Vicki Smith / Ducati to make a special class for these at the Superbike Concourso's / Monster Challenge events in the future?

That's fantastic!!! It was Sears in UTC, right? I sent a cell phone pic to my sister of the same bike telling her that I'm getting if for my nephew when he turns 3  :D She wasn't amused...

They're good value. You can actually get additional kits for them too - 'My First Tail Chop', 'My First Pipe Core' etc.  [thumbsup]

As mentioned above earlier (and now official), a  proposal is being floated forward to DNA for approval for 2009 to have two classes of these at the major Ducati events:  children's class (ie: customized by them) and a grownup's class (for us who can't leave well enough alone).  Hopefully we will get some response in the next few months as I think this would be fun to do and get more enthusiasts and families involved.

electric.  can set speed with switch...slow is about 2 mph.  fast is 4 something (not quite a jog but a very quick walk...almost easier to jog slow).

throttle is a twist grip but it's an on/off.

training wheels come with it and are easily removed.
