All Ducati's are manufactured in Italy, though they source parts from around the world. they are opening (or opened?) an assembly plant in thailand, but it's well after they stopped making the SC. "Final Assembly" typically takes place at the dealer where the new bike is originally purchased.

What he said. Furthermore, the Thailand plant is being called a "final assembly" plant. As far as I have read it will only assemble smaller displacement bikes for Southeast Asian markets. Having final assembly there will save Ducati from higher import tariffs (up to 40% in some countries). Harley did the same thing with their plant in India.
Your bike, like everyone else's here, was made in Bologna.

When asking a Ducati owner if he had any problems with his bike, his response was:
"The only problem I've had is attractive women divesting themselves of their clothing and rubbing their naughty bits on my leg while they lick the gas tank. Makes it hard to pull away from a red light,...... sometimes."
