First Ducati!

Finally found myself a red sport 1000s. What a feeling to have this baby purring between my legs!

It's a great little bike. I'm probably going to do it up a little more for touring now that I have the Sport. I did LA -> Marin last year on it and it was a great trip, just gotta take it slow

I really like the red framed Sport Classics. Are those the 'race' Termi's? Have you heard them compared to the normal, unbaffled Termi's?

I do too, I specially looked for the red one. I have some special plans for this red framed bike.

Yes, these are race termis. They are much more basey (less trebbley) and throaty compared to normal unbaffled termis. They sound outstanding. I will post a video when I get a chance.
