Re: Tall rider

6'2 ", 215 lbs, 34" inseam, I fit perfectly, wind is fine up to about 70mph, although my size 13 boots are a little big for the shifter. Can't even imagine leaning forward on a crotch rocket or sitting on a cruiser with my feet out in front of me now. Go for it - its a blast - its truly sportbike ...

Dharma - thanks for the nice reply. I have researched the bike completely, and it is a good one with 90 real miles. The owner unfortunately was rear-ended in his car right after he bought it. He suffered a back injury and put the bike in his basement until he could ride it. But his back got worse ...

Thanks - I am located in Maryland and there are two dealers, one in Elkridge and one in Rockville. Neither volunteered to replace the guides - in fact both suggested it was a rare situation and would only be needed if the bike was losing power. Neither said that Ducati would pay out of warranty.

Looking at lightly used 06 1000S - valve guide question?

I have found a private owner with a red 06 1000S which has less than 400 miles on it. (Apparently he had a car accident right after he bought the bike, and its been in his basement ever since.) The ...
