First real ride of the season.......




Got the Duc out with two other boys today. Matt on his Triumph T-Bird Sport (fresh fork rework and carb tune - she moves now and sounds like a P-51 Mustang) and Scott on this new Yamaha R6s. It was a bit cold, Chuckanut was PACKED, but we still have a great time just being able to ride. Hoping the weather finally breaks for us. 40 degrees and raining just isn't cutting it anymore. The Duc is running great, but I need to get her down to Ducati Seattle and have Marty tune her up on the dyno. Just ordered some high compression pistons and am anxious to get those installed. I think I'm ready to pull the trigger for a set of lighter wheels and front rotors. Once "Angelina" (named after the Louis Prima song - not Brads wife) she'll be the hottest thing on two wheels.

Man I just love this bike.
