so do you love Ducs still/again?

Dunno. I'm still wary after such a horrible experience. When you pay 1.5x-2x for a bike and the motor craters, you sincerely hope they stand up and support the brand.

DQ got his bike back, for those who didn't know what he had named it and couldn't figure it out from his sig.


DQ's bike was broken, for all those who missed the deleted thread.

Aren't you supposed to be half drunk on good love and cheap wine?  Why you fussin' over a bike?  Now that it's fixed you need to go out and give 'er the old Italian tune-up.  When you get back of course.

I'm half drunk on Cattolica, and the beautiful roads around Tavullia. We rented scooters today...amazing.

Ya be careful with that Cattolica man. You're at the source. It'll sneak up on you and make you speak Latin and shit.
When you find yourself genuflecting, it's time to stop drinking.
