Ducati Scrambler and other things Ducati

Hey, thanks!!! my balance is not so great. I'm using the trampoline and have hit the car flying into/onto it.

Freud might say that you bounce into the car because you miss the pain that you previously could induce by running or riding a bicycle or falling over on a motorcycle, or with a go kart (where is Brakelate with THE photo). I can't help you out other than trying to generate a little mental pain. But, in truth, there are some serious stability wheels out there that might actually work for training purposes as I assume that you need a sign off from your spouse and other members of your care team before they will cut you loose on two wheels. So, I was just partially messing with you, because, as all know, I am not prone to being insensitive or rude or mean spirited at all, so it is unthinkable that I would ever prod you. And, not only can you ask anyone to verify what I say, you can trust me, since I also never exaggerate or put a spin on anything.

Now off to work on getting the turbo to work on the KTM.

It is time to ride the mountain bike in prep for riding the Ducati again. My left arm has some life, in fact my most recent acupuncture session on it hurt like a bitch Two months ago I felt nothing, so I guess that is progress. We are heading up to SoCal Thursday for more medical poking and prodding, and when I return Ima gonna finally man up and do eet!!! I will report back.

If you pay sufficient hush money, I will not tell on you, and, you might get away with it. I mean, of course, get away with riding the mountain bike, as the Ducati would clearly be off limits for a wide variety of reasons. That said. if I see vids of you getting big air on the mountain bike, I might change my stance, as mountain bikes can get more dangerous than a street motorcycle at some point.

I'll fess up. I fell again in town. The result was cutting the end of one finger and seeing just how much blood squirts out with these blood thinners I take.
It made me a little more cautious about riding the mtn bike. Meow

Thought of you, Walker, when I was drooling over the Scramblers last Friday at the Ducati/Aprilia/Triumph/Guzzi dealer in Montrose. A friend is looking at swapping out his 675 triple for a 1200 Bonneville. 420 dry, 97 BHP, 80 ft lbs at 2000.

I didn't expect it but the motorcycle crew down here is very active. more to follow. Bike sounds sweet.
That bike is too much for me. A tricycle is too much right now.

I have no idea why you would be checking out such things when you could simply buy my 690 Duke and have a 350 pound all up weight 62 RWHP monster. I personally can't ride it since I am not skillful enough for such an advanced and sophisticated approach and I am considering trading it in for one of those three wheeled (two in front) 500cc Italian scooters. I am thinking that I could generally handle such a machine, and, it still would be narrow enough to split lanes. The floor boards and weather protection would also be nice...........
