    Ducati itch!

    As I age (ahem), I'm less interested in the latest bikes with all the electrickery. I have been leaning toward bikes with what we may call character for a while & had a recent desire for a 1098R or 1198S (principally the same).

    I know they get a bad rep & do have 'quirks', but when I saw this is the flesh, I just wanted it.

    Its a second bike & just for fun.

    I'm now a Duc man myself, loving it.
