Call Marco at EUROCORSA PERFORMANCE he's got good hook-ups in Italy. Tell him I sent you.

@Stephano - yeah I actually came across that site in my searches. Prices are a bit higher than others I've seen before. I'll shoot him an email in any case.

Yeaup. I saw one vendor (Mota-lab) had three of them on eBay for $1979, then when I checked yesterday, all were sold at a lowered price of $15xx (what the...?!).
Timing...all about timing.

Thanks Stephano!
I called this morning (few times), got no response. So left VM and sent email as well.
Anxiously waiting response.
Found out from Ducati rep that Zard US distributor decided to drop them due to Zard's poor customer service and quality control (as of late).
I still want them

I'm sure he'll get back to you ...he works long hours and tends to be very busy..
AS far as reason for Zard rep in US 'dropping' them ...I'm sure there is more to that story but who cares ..as long as you get the product ....I have em on mine and they are excellent !

Done!
Marco from Eurocorsa is the man!
Thanks Stephano for the word and setting up the deal.
Can't wait to get the system - two weeks. That means I better hurry up with my conversion ('07 Biposto).

YES ! Bark of the Zard rides again ! You will be hard pressed to find such an accomodating guy like Marco ! He could sell ice cream to Eskimos ..honestly Be about the same as dealing with JC .....where customer service comes first !
