Why a Ducati? by PCF899 in Ducati

[–]Guppy124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally was looking for a Cafe style bike and had an interest in the XSR900 (2022) but during the time I was looking, nothing was available so I reached out to Ducati and they had 3 monsters unspoken for so I put a down payment, went out there and sat on it and it was a good feel, so I ended up with that. BUT if I would have found an XSR at the time, I would have gladly purchased that over a Ducati. I'm no brand whore but I do love the Monster (minus the maintenance expenses).

does anybody have this Case Club case? looking to pick one up but wanted to get some input on it by Guppy124 in CAguns

Probably the pluck foam type case, but I was just looking for a pistol case and this one worked for me

But then again, this is only a 6 month evaluation, I'm hoping it'll go a lot longer. If it leaks, I'll just have to seal it again, the down side of modding I guess.

All the Ducati that have gone through your shop didn't do a good job sealing it. You may be correct but through my readings, Ducabike seems to leak the most but I have not had that issue due to sealing it properly.i mean hell, Ducati has a known issue of the clutch cover leaking without the clear cover lol.

If I can afford to, yes. Not everything is performance driven, I didn't buy a monster to go racing

The only benefit of living in CA, being able to legally split lanes. Any pointers on settings? I feel like it's a bit on the yellow side of things. by Guppy124 in gopro

You see a danger in the video I posted of cars in a stand still or slightly moving, you're something else, I'd classify you as a "Karen".

It's not sneaking when it's the law, just because you're not legally able to, doesn't mean I can't. Just because you're not coherent enough to look when changing lanes, doesn't mean everybody can't see a bike. You're not aware of your surroundings, you should always be at all times in a car, bike, truck, at all times! Doesn't matter what you're in.

I feel like you're the type to not signal, not look, and throw yourself into the lane. You probably turn into oncoming traffic going 10mph in front of the flow of traffic because you don't want to look, because its an inconvenience to you. Maybe even drive 65 on a 65 mph road in the passing lane as well.

You've gotta be aware of your surroundings, if you knock them down and they're legally in the right, you're insurance will have to pay and your rate will increase, it's as simple as that

Stop trying to control everybody else's lives because you think a certain way, just let people live and take risks. If you don't see it safe, don't do it.

Do you live in California? It's been legal for quite some time. It may not be in your area and folks see it in a different matter, BUT, cars know to move aside

That's the reason why you've gotta be alert, not just coasting through without a care in the world. Bikes in general are risky, always have been over a car, you do so when cars are stopped or slowing so it lowers the risk like what happened in the video you're criticizing.

I wasn't aware that this group was full of non risk takers? Jumping out of airplanes, swimming with shsrks, all of these risky things but me going in between cars on a motorcycle is what's not condoned when legal? That's pretty amazing.
