When they make Ducatis do they make the red ones last?

#1 Unread post by High_Side »

So the weather here is awesome, we've had Mrs. High_Side's bike on order for months, and still no Ducati. The black ones and the yellow ones have been in for weeks but still no ducky. The worst part is the OTHER dealer in town supposedly got his in a week ago and there are people riding them :rant: :lol: At least I can take comfort in knowing that they paid more..... :laughing:
Heeeeeeeerrrreeee Ducky Ducky! :laughing:

I'll marry you for one of those...
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

The dealer here in Ottawa has a couple red ones sitting in the show room. I know someone who made the trip between the two cities for a Ducati (a yellow one I recall :twisted: )

Hope she gets her bike soon!

The red ones just sell out quicker, so there's more demand.

Believe me when I say, when you order something from Italy you need to expect it to take twice as long as ordering it from somewhere else. I ordered a Choke cable for a suzuki VX800 from an Italian dealership 4 weeks ago ... still nothing. :roll:

Well, red ones go faster. It's a proven fact.
