A few pics from the Ducati factory...

[98tls]

Anybody here actually been to the factory?
I've got a trip coming up in Sept to that area & was seriously thinking of knocking on the nice Mr Ducat's front door, flash my pearly whites, wear my All Black branded rugby top & hope to get in. Is it cool to just rock up or do you need appointments & referrals like some of the big name marquee cage companies?

From what i understand......should correct the title of this thread.......the pics are takin at a museum type place adjoining the factory,you are not allowed to take pics in the factory.........and yes you can just rock up and enjoy.

Actually I was thinking of the Bayliss, but then I'm biased.

The owner of the bike in my 1098 Tri-colore post went through the Factory but you have to book in to do so . He said it is quite small but bloody excellent so check it out about booking a visit .

Hmmm, lessee now:
chances of riding my bike in the near future? SFA
chances of repairing my bike in the near future? SFA
chances of saving my relationship when my significant other finds out repair costs? SFA
thanks to the above, chance of having anything other than these pic's to jerk off over in near future? SFA

Thanks for small mercies.....
