Was at argyll this afternoon picking up a summer ridiing jacket. I made the mistake and stopped by the Ducati section. Frick I'm in love. For the first time in a long time I had a brief moment of weakness and considered sellin both my bikes, just to buy one....I love the GT with the shorty fairing.....damn.......then I remembered that they aren't 2 strokes, So I said screw it and walked out....

Different heads, some welding, a little porting work and, presto, a two stroke Ducati!

Are you saying that they had this actual bike there?! If so I'm going to go see it!

I came pretty close to falling on my sword over the GT1000, my favourite of all of the retro clones. The only odd thing is how high off the wheel the rear fender is. But you can forgive a flaw or two for such beauty, non?

Different colour, but it's very similiar to the one my cousin just bought. Very nice. I don't think he'd let you crotch his though. ^_^

Yes, better to ask forgiveness than....I went to see it today. Can I be the maid of honour? Luckily, the bars would be way too low for moi. Sure is pretty all in red. Kinda like a xmas present...from Victoria's Secret.

Well, so long as you're able to deal with the consequences... I'm not sure which of you I'd put money on in a fair fight...or even an unfair one. That's my only concern. ^_^
