Over 15K? OMG. Did you just hit numbers or something? OMG. I think that this is out of my league. Maybe later.

Ducati = the new Harley? that is one sexy bike, and one of the few i actually like in pure white... seems so innocent until you get to know her dirty little side....

I think that's for the 1098R (or race version). The regular version is only like $20K or something. You get to pick, buy a decent car or buy a Ducati 1098. The car will cost you much less in maintenance I am sure!

The bike had just returned from being shipped to a custom shop in California who did all sorts of neat (and not so neat) stuff to the bike, like chroming the rims and other items, and a custom exhaust.
