Ride to pick up my first Ducati

Here is a link to a some photos of our ride from El Paso to PJ's in Albuquerque to trade in my H-D and get my first Ducati.

What a machine! To say I am happy is an understatement.

Mark Turbo went from a Sportster to an ST4s and has never looked back.

Congrats on your new ride Vettesrule. Coming off a cruiser, it'll take a little while to find the foot pegs when you first take off.

You are right about that foot peg comment Bob!

I still have all my H-D stuff Bill. I guess I'll keep it just in case I ever get another one.

I bought the Ducati instead of the new Street Glide and I am really glad I did. Now I just need some good weather to go out and enjoy it!

I am a jealous man...I bought a used 2005 ST3 (1000 miles on it) in January and its sitting in storage about 50 miles from where I live in Chicago. I'm dying to get that thing out and get my first ride on a Ducati....God I can't wait.
