Congrats and an excellent choice. Now,,, as others said, bite the $$ bullet and put some pipes on it this weekend. We can't have no Ducati sounding like a steenkin lawnmower can we?

My neighbor just got an S2R, put the arrow pipes on it. I love the new design of those and they sound sweeeet!

Welcome to the most addictive thing thats ever happened to you. Unless you've been hooked on heroine.....

Welcome and nice bike. Being a recent Duc owner myself, beware of the overpowering urge to customize. Perfection is just a credit card away! As the commercial says, "the best things in life are free, for everything else there is MasterCard, ie debt".

Nice bike....man I want one. Just about everything you need is available at Section 8...or Alex Ortner....might as well grab the bull by the horns and do it right now....resistance is futile....

Ours used to look like that

DUCMON996 welcome. I find it odd though that the factory still manufactures the pre-testastretta engines.Unless maybe they still have a bunch of 'em hanging around,or are they still just tooled up for them?

give me a chance dude... I just got it! Pipes are on the way.

What is that big can underneath? A catalizer?
