i wouldn't be surprised if the goal is to just open before the Wooodward Dream Cruise in Aug. I'm sure they would kill in apparel sales alone with all of the foot traffic that will bring in...

That's for sure.  It gets more insane every year.  With being right on Woodward too. That is a goal they should meet.

You get hired yet? Or did I miss that?

You missed nothing yet....

Riding out there today, hopefully i can gather some more intel!!

Floors are being put in!!!

Any word on the soft June opening?

Nothing yet Matt, I haven't been out there in a week or so.  I will see what I can dig up tomorrow.  (Finally got a day off work).

Well, let's hope this dealership lasts longer than the previous Ducati Detroit locations.  They used to be on Van Dyke several years ago, moved to Groesbeck and sounds like they're setting up shop in the area near Auto Europe.

TT Motorsports is good, but you cannot get any face time with those guys to feel like you're being taken care of.

Adam, can you tell us if they will be able to upgrade a bike based on the owner's request?  To be specific, I'd like to get my S2R 1000 to run well under 4000 rpms without guessing with my wallet.   I'd also like to get it optimized (dyno'ed) so I know the before and after.  I'm guessing it would involve tuning, possibly a PC etc., but I'd like to speak to some one with experience in this arena.

BTW, what color is your Evo?  Was that you on SB Woodward a few weeks ago?  I was hustling through traffic on a black BMW GS.

There will be a dyno there and there will also be two amazing tuners/techs that i am sure can tune it to your specifications.

I am sure it was me, i also saw a red S*R cruising that day as well.   Anyone here possibly?
