New tard rider

Hello everyone,
Been checking this forum for a while, finally i decided to bite the bullet and bought a hyper, will be picking it up this coming saturday. I got an amazing deal on the demo bike, will post pics this weekend.
The dealer had already painted it white pearl, full termi system and open clutch, cant wait to start riding it.

After almost 7 long months after the accident i got back on the horse. I've been looking for a bike for a few months now, test riding and getting as much info a possible, i was in no rush to get another bike. Victoria's condition to get the bike was LIFE and HEALTH insurance. She went with me to look at all the bikes. Last week i finally decided to get the hypermotard, Ace motorsports had a demo bike with a lot of goodies, the owner painted it pearl white. Props to Ace, they were amazing, great people there, very professional and zero pressure.
Yesterday morning my friend Ji-Eon drove me to concord (weird, he is the person that brought me back from the hospital after my accident and now he took me to pick up the new bike ). After i picked it up i went for a nice ride, first impression that bike is FUN , i'm going to need a plastic surgeon to take the smile off my face. I'm still a bit nervous but now i'm facing my demons left after the accident.
Here are some pics taken this morning, now heading out for a quick ride.

johnc, i bought the demo bike from Ace, very happy with the bike, cant wait to take it to longer trips, not sure how long i'm going to keep my driving recor clean.
Thanks for the invite to the Ducati meet, cant make it tomorrow, mondays are very long days for me, but i will keep my eyes open for future meets.
