No doubt.


So are you saying you don't believe Last is a dealer?

Or did you just miss that post?

I KNOW Carlos works for a Duc dealer  [thumbsup]

I have no idea what here is and is not fact.   But I do agree with duccarlos' assessment.

I agree with all the Carlos'  ;D

Not that it matters  ;)

I mean I'm not telling anyone to short stock on the answer, but it seems reasonable to expect that confirmation of the internet rumor in this case.

Like I said, my little bro was convinced enough he wanted to grab one of the "last" 796's before they were gone.

But it's not going to screw up his world if by chance Ducati suddenly decided to build a few more and VIN them 2015's.

And being a small Italian manufacturer FACT one day can certainly become myth the next when they change their minds.

"Oooo, never a minda, we gonna make a few more, we founda some more parts in da back room".

Kev M, no more M696 and M796 . . . M821 replaces both of those bikes, Scrambler is a Ducati, but, with a different marketing scheme . . . and it is and will be for the foreseeable future, the least expensive Ducati available . . .

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

Blah, blah, none of this chatter dissuades me from wanting a Scrambler, if I had the garage space I would add a Full Throttle version and park it between the Indian Scout I also want to add and my XR1200. Or maybe I'd put it in line with my other Ducs between the M900 and Mr. Devil. As for Buell the new HD 750 Street appears to be a pretty nice bike, and EBR bikes seem to be doing just fine. Think I'll also sepnd some time monitoring this site http://www.scramblerforum.com - Gene

Nor should it.  Besides I think you will look great in a pair of skinny jeans and some horn rimmed glasses  ;D

We think alike in a couple of ways.  [thumbsup]

The Scout was fun, I could own one too (and I might).



Part of me regrets not buying a new Denim White XR1200X, but it was either THAT or my new Guzzi V7 and I really needed to replace the 2 Guzzis I'd sold.

I think that's why I picked up the tube-frame Buell as, to me, it's sorta the grandpappy of the XR.

Still might look for an XR in the future... if I don't get distracted by ... oOOOOH look A SQUIREL...

If I could still get into skinny jeans, which was possible until I turned ~40 - awhile ago, I would gladly wear the glasses. - Gene

I like it...

except I'd rather see wiring than those hideous plastic covers.

You know I do. I'm looking for a lawyer to send Ducati a letter about where to send my royalty checks. :lol3

My 900 is too tightly suspended for life in this city. I'm thinking one of these with a marshmallow soft suspenders might be just the ticket for life in the city. Now that my F650 is no more, I need a city bike.

I had settled on a Triumph Tiger until I saw this.
