Comprato un motociclo Italiano

**miSTa** · 11th June 2007, 21:02

Couldn't help myself. After a few months of trying all manner of non-Japanese bikes ranging from $10,000 to $20,000 I had to go Italian. So I am now the proud owner of a 2001 Ducati ST4.

It was a ST4 that started the "need" for a new bike and it's a ST4 that finshes it. Yeeha!

A few crappy night time photos but you get the idea:

I have seen the bike and it is a little beauty, well done that man.

Well worth the wait and the hunt. you should both be happy together.

Nuffink wrong with a shiny red Italian. I couldn't afford a proper one so I got an ickle 600cc one. Still sounds like sex incarnate.

Well done.

Well done that man

Enjoy the red rocket

I have a strong dislike for financial controllers...

(damn I hate myself)

Except when they make grand justifications like when I obtained some Italian metal!

I had a little spin out to New Brighton then Heathcote before heading back home after calling in to see Lemans.

Didn't notice the cold, tough guy aye?
