   Hello there. I have owned two Ducati's, One MV Agusta, One Aprilla, two Buells, a Harley, and a host of ching chang machines. I love the Ducati's. I had a 06 Multistrada 620 that I loved. I did not want to part with her but one must honor a bet or dare. By the way I have some spare parts if anyone is looking. The bet or dare came in the form of my best friend. He has been ridding for almost 30 years. He has never owned a new bike. He has been lusting over a sexy MV f3 675. He was in getting tires for his 03 RACING Tauno. Yes a real one of 50 full carbon, Ti, and Ohlins Racing Aprilia Tuano. I told him, feeling safe doing this, that if he bought the F3 I would buy a new bike. Safe bet I thought. He said ok lets do it.
   I have been trying for some time to get him to buy a new bike. PLus the shop owner is a friend of mine. So I turned to the shop owner and said to do this he would have to take three of my bikes in trade. I traded a MV Agusta B3 800, a 06 Multistrada, and a newly rebuilt Kawasaki 250 Ninja. My buddy got the bike he has lusted over. I got a new Red 796 Monster. I must say what a great bike. I am glad I did it.

Welcome!

Excellent taste, naturally.  ;D Where do you live and which dealer? Curious minds, etc. Any pix?

I live in San Diego. The Dealer is Moto Forza. No pics yet, maybe once I add something to her.

Check out your local board. A lot of riders on here in your area. A few suggested near invisible mods on my signature line.  ;)

Too bad about you owning a Ducati. [laugh]
