Furtunate to meet these guys, some of the top Service reps for North America. I had so many questions in mind, but to be honest I've have NO issues with my bike *edit miles* (now at 4800+ miles). Sam (guy far right) did though pull some strings and contacted my dealer to replace my mirrors under warrantee. Explained that it wouldnt normally be cover due to me folding them every night to get the bike in my living room haha. He had good questions for me too though which I really appreciated.

Loving it, bike in your hotel room, definitely beats handing it over the valet. My overly intelligent building management created motorcycle parking in P4, 5 levels down from ground floor. I might try your trick in the office just to see what they say.

Nice red pants by the way, did those come with the bike?

@ Indy Ducati getting ready for the Red Tail run to the speedway..what an experience :-)

Pulling up to the island in the Red tail

1st time on a wheelie machine...this one actually runs a simulated program so its very interactive and realistic...the bike gets real light at balance point. I can ride a wheelie but I dont do all this on my Pani, tho I'll pull her up and ride out 1st or 2nd. 3rd hops only when you are in race mode red lining each gear on the launch

Looks like you had a awesome trip. I sure wish I could have made it.

I assume you took advantage of the free ticket that Ducati offered. How were they and did they provide anything else?

Yeah I sure did claim my ticket lol. The hospitality was on point as always but I felt a little more like VIP pulling up on a Pani and they have big smiles. It made me realize that there really aren't that many in the US and that we really have an exotic in or possession.

The complimentary tickets included everything the email suggests, great seats, the best parking..hell, it was free. I even had a few friends volunteer to work Ducati island for a few hrs in exchange for free Duc Island tickets.

I didn't bother to do the track lap this time since it's now so controlled. Your lap is escorted by a pace car going not very fast. I did it the first yr on my 999 when there were no restrictions and you had to practice self restraint considering you're on cold tires. Thrilling nonetheless

.

Also met the guy with the BellissiMoto cf Pani and the guy on here who's bike caught on fire...figure I would have met more of you
