Sorry G, I deleted it, its early & heads still in a fog.   

Thanks for hunting it down. Hope all is well North of the border. 

All is well in the frozen North.  Looking forward to Ouray now.  Hope to have chain and sprockets by then.  I'm having to lay a little low on the mileage right now till I get 'em on.  It sucks being poor.  I don't remember caring as much the last time I was poor.  Maybe I didn't have a Ducati to maintain back then.

Hi Stew,

Below are the recent upgrade photos, help, thanks.

All,

Ok, I brought her in to PJ's for an exhaust upgrade! Runs and sounds great! Thanks to everyone from the service folks to the mechanics at PJ's that made this mod possible! Excellent teamwork!  I have always loved this bike, but now I love her even more, brings out the Roman God of War within! Just to hear the sweet sound of thunder she commands with one flick of the throttle and the ride is exhilerating! When words cannot descibe the feel of this ride, you know its love! Wait, I had a vision...the twisty's of Ouray may yet be in my August future. Thanks again!

She's a beauty!  Termi's on a Duc are the sweetest sound to my ears.  Nothing compares.

You'll get it....

Ok, I have to ask, what happened to your ride?

Nice time to take this beauty for a ride with some fellow NMMR hooligans

So I just sat here listening to it with a big smile on my face, knowing the exact feeling, when I started my bike the first time with it's new Termi's installed.  I nearly swooned.

Nothing is wrong with my ride right now.  Just the rear sprocket is showing some signs of wear so it would be prudent to replace the set and chain before I have another asphalt misadventure.  I am not in the danger zone yet, just being uncharacteristically cautious.  I have to protect my new personal record of most amount of miles accumulated between get-offs.

I went back and located a video of Scottish and I revving our bikes.  The Dragon was my first Monster which he restored after I had a run-in with a naughty driver.  It's his bike now.   The second bike is the Paladin which I bought with the insurance settlement.  Same exact bike.  It was quite the cacophony in the backyard.  Sounded louder in person than on video.  Good times!

Cacophony? No, it was much better than that, the dragon is a beauty and Scottish did a sweet job of restoration. Paladin is also a beauty, such a noble name for a little red horse. Yes, I too listened several times to the sound of these Termi's and it is as if Apollo and Hermes were in concert together and their lyre's were in perfect harmony! It was an exquisite symphony played for the Gods! Shame on the naughty driver, but it appeared that you and Scottish were having a Scottish Celebration with a side of traditional Haggis topped with a whiskey sauce! The Termis sounded great on the Bose System connected to my computer, it was as if I was actually there listening! Thanks for the joy of the double termi symphony!

ppppffftttttt u'all dont know what your talking about...

its all about the Leo's 

[Mars]

Dearest DucMouse,
I think it's time you met Hermes! He is native to the Isle of Man, but is mesmerized by New Mexico wildlife. He loves all creatures great and small, but especially all breeds of birds and duc-riding mice! (get my back Stew and help me post this photo!)  http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4118/4737768462_5c346baacc_b.jpg
