The maintenance of Ducs is like a girl. High and Expensive.
My friend is tempting me to get a beater for the track but too much spending right now, but I really want to hit the track. No way with the 996. Minor Crashing it is like a price of another bike.
Membership, Trackfees, Beater bike, Leathers, trailer or truck, all that ****..
I've got 2 beater offers. 99 gsxr 600 and cbr f3. I dont really like none of those, but between the two, Id take the gsxr. I've had one a while back that I crashed.
I'd like K version gsxrs for the track. I'm comfortable with gsxrs. my last one was on 02 750

Nah, I didn't get it painted although I want to get some body work and fresh paint. I want a good job though, not of those maaco specials. It's my daily driver so it gets all that street/weather and all the ****..
My exhaust before was N1 and some meineke crap.
Some hot girl sold me some aerosol wax at Shell while I was getting fuel on my FD.
She bent over to wax my front and rubbed the wax so nice that I ended up buying 3 cans and two microfiber cloths. She kept talking/selling me stuff. blah blah didnt pay attention she was so hot that I wanted to bang her and spray my own liquid on her.
Well, here. Washed and waxed, then rained on. wtf.
It's really shiny in person..
Also raised the front suspension a bit coz it kept scraping my damn lip and caused a small crack underneath. Seems to handle better now after the raise. That's why it's good to corner balance those coilovers. The FD is balanced, not the FC. .. just a dd

I've had it a looong time ago. Had it made.
Haven't snapped some interior shots because there's nothing in there. Just my garbages everywhere. It's my DD 7 days a week, unless I use my FD or my latest addition..
It's FC section, but I'll throw in a bit of non-fc
kk, here's some brake job..
Wires/Plugs
Washed..
The latest addition. '05 2.0T, Auto/Triptronic whatever you call it.
Quiet, smooth,quick, and all sorts of 'luxury' stuff. Getting tired of driving loud,low,manual rough cars sometimes..
Needs a bit of stuff. Wheels may get powder coated for a fresh look.
Here's the FD. Still solid.
.....and last for now is the Ducati. Here's how it looks from:
(Yes, Ducati requires alot of pricey short interval maintenance that makes the bike look like this during the process)
And done...
