Beware the CF Disease! Duc's are definitely at risk, but known to strike other machines. Just look at my '08 'Busa.

Congrats! I've had my 1098 for about 4 months now and I like it a lot. It might come as a surprise to some, but I still ride the VTR most of the time.

NICE !! Congrats

Wait. Is that a US model?
I don't see the snow plow attachment points that come standard on the Canadian version.

It's still pretty wadded but mechanically ok. I don't have enough money for Ducati parts!

You think the VTR's suspension is messed, just wait until you find out how horrible the 1098's is...... I just recently got mine setup to a decent level.
