  1. Ownership over 10 years has had some highs and lows, but every time I ride this bike it brings a smile to my face ...

  2. Nice bike and some nice roads to ride it on too. Except the snowy one. :Nailbiting:

  4. That was heading over the Alps on my way to WDW 10. Froze on the way up, but then boiled in the Mont Blanc tunnel ....

  5. Don't want to dwell too much on those, but a few spring to mind:
    1. Major charging issues when I first got the bike due to poor maintenance of the electrics.
    2. Several breakdowns in Europe which were caused by a faulty rectifier.
    3. Highside at my local track ...

    All part of the life rich pattern and Ducati ownership. But like most issues they are now distant memories.
