Being out of touch with street bikes for many years, I asked my 23 year old son, who owns (and nearly died last March on) a 2008 Kawasaki Ninja 600R about your Ducati .... He said that Ducatis' are kind of like the "Ferrari's" of the Superbike World and gives it 2 thumbs up .... and my boy has many faults, but he knows his motorsickles better than most.
