Well hey, at least it's got a METAL gas tank...

...and if that's STILL too much plastic for you, there's always Harley.  [evil]

2. As much as I enjoy some of the shots of scantily clad models draped over bikes (like from EICMA show in Milan each year), maybe it's the dad in me that really appreciates Ducati's class/taste in how the two cute Ducati girls are dressed at this show. Maybe it's just the presence of your daughter (and thinking about my own) that's got me feeling that way, cause again, I'm ok with a certain amount of objectification lol. Or maybe I'm finally just getting old (or mature)....  then again NAAAAAAAAHHH probably not.

absolutely agree.  I don't feel uncomfortable taking my wife/kids into the ducati area at a show.  can't say that for all brands/shows.

here's my Pops and one of this friends-for-40-years at Long Beach:


I think they were enjoying the attention, but when she found out 2/3 of us were Duc owners her attention moved on.

Nothing really surprising there, except that they chose to include a V7 Special which is about as much a Scrambler as a stock Sportster.

But it does again remind me about why I like the Scrambler.

My buddy in Italy picked up an FT this week.  He's loving it but I'm waiting to see the mods that he has in store for it.  Maybe then I'll see the potential.  All this Scrambler talk though has me spying the 2015 Triumph.  Loving the looks of that bike!
