Passed an F4 last week on my S ABS like they were standing still. Wondering if he had canceled his Panigale order to get the F4. Well actually, I could care less.

I have grown more patient in my old age and have a couple of bikes to keep me busy until the arrival.

But I do feel the pain and impatience of folks that took DNA or Ducati at face value and also understand some of the anger created by the delivery delays and hype.
Give DNA a piece of your mind every chance you get and don't let them lay blame on your dealer...been there done that.
My dealer still can't tell me when the bike will arrive and I feel sorry for these poor bastards being put in this position. Hope Audi will whip their asses into shape.

I need another mistress to make a threesome .. and a bigger bed. The new mistress is a Tric and has carbon fiber lingerie ;-) Now her agent tells me they will not know till July 2012 with a turn up date of Nov 2012.. however thats OK as when she arrives I know she will be a screamer.

I went by the dealer to check on things today and he said they are/were to get 28 bikes this month. With only 2 weeks left, even he is skeptical that this will happen. He said of those they were to get 6-8 tricolore's. Based on the limited information, I'm out into late June I'm sure.

I guess I'll check back with them in a month to see where things stand.

I received an email from my dealer on the 8th of May stating,"your bike will arrive between the 15th and 25 of May". The email also said, "more news to come in the following days (vin number)".

Yesterday, ten days after the initial email is the first time I emailed the dealer back asking if he had any updates. I was trying my best not to bother them. He had great news! He gave me my VIN and said "the bike should be in on Monday or Tuesday, and it will be ready to pickup by Wednesday"! He told me they have 10 Pani's coming in on this shipment.

Keep the faith for all of you waiting. Your time will come and I hope very soon.

Cheers!

Congratulations!! You won't be disappointed. Enjoy the experience. Nothing like the feeling of picking up a new Ducati!

I don't mind the wait, it's the total lack of feedback or info from the dealer that grinds me...... I can manage my accounts from my iPhone, make reservations, etc but they can't give me a date for delivery - really?

@ Litespeed , where do you live ?

iiiofiv · May 19th, 2012, 05:06 PM

All I know at this point is that I'm 1st on the list at my local dealer for the Tricolore.

I don't know what that means on the Mayan calendar but I'm hopeful it's sometime prior to the end of the world, 'cause I'd at least like to get one ride in!

waterdawg308 · May 19th, 2012, 06:07 PM

Got mine on the 5th in Denver, 4 total were delivered. Worth the wait!!!!!!!!

iiiofiv · May 19th, 2012, 06:24 PM

Congrats! What model did you get?

Where are these at, what models, and how many? Ill drive across the U.S to get it if I have to!

Litespeed · May 19th, 2012, 07:46 PM

I live in Illinois. The dealer is just outside of the Chicagoland area. The bikes he has coming in are all purchased I believe. Maybe it wouldn't hurt if you call them just incase someone backs out.

Whats the name of the dealer? Im not actually that far away and I could probably have the dealer here transfer one out. I live in Lansing, Michigan.

Here is the dealers website. I hope something works out for you.
