Its siren song was just too much for me to resist.

Very nice Kurt!
We should get together for a ride sometime. Maybe meet in St. Louis and go down along the Mississippi River and west through SE Missouri toward Springfield. It's be a nice 2 day ride....maybe we can get a few other Pelicans to go along too! Enjoy the Duc. Mine's parked in the front garage behind the 911 ready to ride...if I can find time!

The modern Ducs are pretty reliable. They also have longer service intervals (7500 miles) so it should be cheaper as well. I know a number of people with '08-09 bikes and have yet to hear of any mechanical issues. And one guy has over 15K on his Hyper (he's whack).
Your buzz is safe. Until your 15K service bill

I've heard Ducati is great about warranty and goodwill warranty work too.
