Ducati NY called last weekend and explained the 1098 were headed in, but no exact date. So my job booked a 1 month contract out to Cali on one of those 30 day work around the clock tech gigs. So I'm in Cali this week working with a bunch of geeks thinking about my 1098 and working my arse off. So today the phone rings and its Ducati NY,...F#$K Me! Great, your bike has arrived. 3 weeks of waiting to see my 1098 is going to take a few years off my time on planet earth. Ok I'm done with the mild rant.
