My new scoot...

You remember this thread where I thought about trading for a Ducati Monster and it didn't work out.

Well I decided to try and see if anyone wanted to buy the Kawi. And since it was CL, I put "Only trades I'm interested in are Honda VFR800, or most models Ducati." Lo and behold a guy rang me up, and we worked out a straight swap. This is my new scoot...

2003 620, 14,300 miles, recent service, new tires, red key, black key, new belts and K&N filter, Haynes manual, integrated taillight, etc.

And I didn't do it just because she is yellow, although that didn't hurt after all...

So, did the guy just get tired of maintaining it?

Usually I only like Ducati's in red or black but that yellow oh my

Beautiful. A 90s 900 SS or a monster are two of the remaining things on my dwindling bucket list of attainable things.

Funny. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't lusted over Ducatis for a long time. A fear of them and their expense scared me away often. But as the guy who traded with me put it "most bikes you throw a leg over and ride, the Ducati you wrap around yourself and wear."

I've only put about 60 miles on it, but he was right. And it is rather yummy.

92dxman- thanks. I thought they should all be red too, but the yellow is amazing in person.

Nice congratulations. Now find a copy of LT's book but I believe he's closed for army training. Desmo times
