    My first sportsbike

    After falling in love riding my young sons CBR250R I decided I needed my own sportsbike.

    After test riding 3 bikes on Friday,was told bout another bike that was,miraculously,in my price range but I was pretty noncomital bout riding.....

    Two gear changes and there was a grin that just got bigger and bigger.Its loveNever in a million years did I imagine this would be the bike for me

    I am the very proud owner of a hot hot hot sexy Italian-a blue Ducati ST4.Now I reckon I've got the perfect(for me)bikes in my garage

    Congrats. Ducati St4's are rare in my neck of the woods......and I've never seen a blue one in person. I'd def. consider one if I ever got into sports touring and such. Got any pics to share yet??

    Good on ya Helen!

    Hope your new bike will be a long and pleasant experience!
