This forum is for you guys and gals, what do you want to see to make it better?
Please post up your thoughts and ideas.
A good forum is the results of the members input, so feel free to give us some input.
How about, trying to put a Dealer Listing together for Ducati's in the US and Canada. Than rating them as more members come on board with experiences from different dealers on buying to service.
Here is the reason why. In Canada there is not one good Ducati mechanic that I can suggest or recommend to anyone.
Spoke to my wife regarding this and now once again the 07R1 is back on the table.

Whoops......... You will still be happy with the R1 for sure... :)
and yes that is a good idea..... I will figure something out for this
good idea, but a large undetaking for sure. Plus, people often only remember the bad experiences, but hopefully we could keep things on a civil, objective basis. (not likely)
Def something to look into as the forum grows
The Ducati website has to have a Dealer listing we could start there.
And Phil we could set up some simple rules for the thread so things don't get out of hand :)
I'll start some research tonight :cool

nice list phil
not sure how up-to-date it is...
since my dealer
eurocycles of tampa bay
isn't listed.... i don't think
they've been selling ducati for only 2 years
but... still not there
FYI
I have an 04R1 with too many mods, and if I was to sell it I loose my shirt with it.
So selling is not an option, buying a new bike is :)

Biga, I thought the same thing until I found someone who wanted to buy my bike without any mods at all.... he wanted it completely stock. So I took all the mods off and put them up for sale (on the R1F) for 70% of what I paid for them. Within a week they were all gone at or real close to the 70% price.
I ended up settling at a price of $8000.00 for the bike and all the mods came to $1800.00, a total of $9800.00 - I could not believe what had happened and I was a happy camper. I only paid $10,599.00 for the bike in Feb 04 and sold it in March 06.
So if you do decide to sell it, make sure and strip it of all the mods. :beer
good point R1L, a stock bike often can demand a decent price, especially on a trade-in.
R1L, what you say is true, but what do you do when you have 2k in motor work as well?
The bike is paid for the parts are paid for, so selling it is not a choice I would consider
I have made so many crazy decisions on selling my other modded bikes, that even my wife has had enough. Therefore the 04R1 is in her name and she will not sign the papers to sell the bike. Besides there is nothing wrong with having one or two bikes in the garage. :)

Ya, under those circumstances, it's better to keep it for sure.

One more thing, if you ever venture North you might need a bike to ride. :)

^ $2K in the MOTOR? Fook! List some droolable goodies, please.
^^ Actually... I've been informed that a person who has multiple bikes is absolutely insane.:lmao
(BTW - IMVHO, the '04-'06 Yam R1 is the most gorgeous non-Italian bike EVER. Mine is a Raven Black. What's yours?)
^ Actually is just a complete head work w/thinner head gasket but it is in Canadian funds so it just sound very expensive. :lmao
