    It will happen soon. It's expensive as fuck for the gear and so far, I'm getting it little by little. It's a process bro.

    The bike does not need any mods in regards for power or anything like that, it has more than what I will ever use or be able to handle.

    I need to buy a trailer now and setting it up inside. Looking at a few this weekend.

    This bike demand throttle. If you try to just cruise around town, be ready to get tired and most of all, your ass and legs will be burning from the heat of the exhaust.

    Reminds me of the RX8 I once had. That fucking thing demanded high RPMs and not a good car for bumper traffic.

    I did purposely get caught in some mild rain to put into "wet" mode. Essentially the bike becomes that "eco" mode most cars have.

    I've done the race mode, and ummmmm....yea that's another subject in itself lol....my balls aren't that big for that setting, yet[emoji4]

    But I did try it....like holy fuck!!!!

    No wonder me and this bike go hand in hand. It's made for turns and handling.

    If you've never ridden a bike, I certainly don't recommend getting a Ducati as a 1st one.

    Totally forgot how hot the bikes get, but the Ducati bikes are worse, and well known for it too.

    The placement of my feet needs adjustment and still trying to figure out that. The exhaust vents/gas come out the bottom and well, hit my feet.

    Tomorrow some of my stuff comes in, will be putting on the fender eliminator kit.


    More videos to come.

    Shoei vs Arai is literally all about a good fit. Both companies are the best of the best.

    The transitional lens was fucking $160!?!??!

    Metro cities like Boston and such, will charge that type of monies for one, and people pay it.

    While it's not cheap for the price, when you live in these cities, many people are making well over the $125/$150K mark for the year.

    So paying this is minimal bro. Again, I do understand this is stupid but when you make good money, $600 to keep a nice toy away, is nothing.

    Luckily I pay very minimal but if I were in those types of predicaments, I'd pay for it.

    I did some research before I pulled the trigger. I knew my obstacles and such. Now I'm going to modify it a bit. Ordering carbon fiber parts for most of the under seatings and side pieces. This titanium feel is no joke on this bike, fuck!
