No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

WillS

well, we got a new ducati model at the shop.

One that makes you   [thumbsdown], [puke] or  [bang]?
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

WillS

i have to admit, it looks good from the side and it rides and handles better than any bike in that class.

but when i rolled by starbucks and i swear i felt it try to turn into the lot

MadDuck

Mine came stock with an automatic Starbucks locator.   [coffee]   [laugh]

Do we get test rides on the new one?

hey Will, any idea when my 848 will be ridable again?
it is so much easier to get forgiveness then it will ever be to get permission.

WillS

sorry i didn't get back to you earlier, i was without tech for a few days.  i found a missing screw and replaced it, hope all is well

hadesducati848

yep i worked out really well. i was able to catch a ride to pick up the 848 and then use it to my appointment and home. no mass transit for me anymore [thumbsup]

and thank you for the excellent work. the tank looks beautiful.

oh and a side question ummm does the engine oil need to be drained when you check the valves? i did all the fluids and filters already with the only thing left to do is the valves and i want to have you do that. i just need to know i should order more oil and another oil filter.

WillS

No, oil doesn't have to be drained for that. But i actually just swapped the oil when i replaced your stator.

Hi Will! Looks like I'll be stopping by this week....my rear break isn't working.  It made part of today commute very adventurous!  Luckily, the front break still worked.  :-(  

Cheers,
