Interesting that half of Ducati owners also own a Harley.  The Ducati brand has always held the same kind of "soul" to me...different, and there's really nothing else that sounds quite like one, or rides like one either.  At the AMA races in April, you could definitely hear the Ducs apart from all the others.

You're right Terry, the Ducs have just as unique a sound as the H-D's do.

At Alice's Restaurant in California, every weekend has a hudreds of bikes of all makes.  It's funny how the Ducatis and HD's park together and "everything else" parks separately  ;D

AS "the "BIKERS PRAYER" STATES...."Lord Save Me From The Fast "NORTON"..

Wherever I park my 74 850 COMMANDO "HIGHRIDER", I receive at least as many AAAAHHHHHS for it as I do "Nice Bike" for my 05 Blue Se.

 Ducats Have always been nice, but they are being traded in pretty steady for BMW's

I don't care either way,  My SNORTER, SE's (2), And PAN will continually get SMOKED by some of the "NEW" Euros & Asians, while I ride away on the bike of thier DREAMS!
