Nice, I saw that one on CL.


Yeah, I saw it 10 minutes after he posted it.  Got his number and called.  About 45 seconds into the call he asked if I own a Ducati already and I told him, "Yup, Sport Classic" and he says, "I just sold one of those.".  Took me about a millisecond to put 2 and 2 together.  Too funny.

Anyway, it'll hopefully make a great starterbike for my wife.  She's really excited!

Cool beans!
It looks very well cared for.

Now maybe Tommy is on his way to get his 1098!   [thumbsup]

Yeah, Lyndy wouldn't settle for anything other than a Ducati either.  [thumbsup]

It seems to have been pretty well cared for.  Having only 2200 miles on the clock is probably one contributing factor.  [thumbsup]

Yeah, Bonnie said she figures that Tommy will have a red 1098 in the garage by the end of the year.  [laugh]

Thanks!

I'd like her to at least get her MC license before planning any rides!  But I know it'll be tough!
