Default Ducati owner looking to come aboard

Hi everyone.
I've been a long time Ducati nut but, am getting tired of finding something broken everytime I take my bike apart. My buddy recently bought a Super Duke and I've always heard good things about KTMs.

If and when I get the money or sell my 01 748 I'll be looking for a Duke, Super Duke, or (God willing) an RC-8.

Pete

Default 748 for racing

a few folks are racing those ...keep an eye on roadracing sites , for good source to sell it... depending on your price, which will dictate how quick you'll be able to sell ...don't forget to consider the economic factors of 2010 ! It may turn around(hopefully) after the 1st of the year,if u can wait til Spring '11... Unfortunately, politics/economy will be a factor. Motorcycling , as a whole, is affected by this. Plus most folks still view road riding, as "recreational", as opposed to "required" ...

The price for a "new" 08 SD, is just a total bargain !! seen them for a low of $7800- $8700,, how can you pass that up!! as for an RC8 the "new" twin spark models will certainly be driving down the price on leftovers that are out there, I would wait a little for a deal you can't refuse, which ever you end up with be prepaired to spend on mod's and bling !!
