I've only got Ducatis - I'm lucky enough to own two now, but only through a lot of scrimping and saving (even now I've only really got one Ducati because I haven't got around to getting the ST serviced yet and it's WAY overdue some belts).
But I don't mind people who own other bikes chipping in here at all, after all, we all love two wheels and if I couldn't have a Duke for whatever reason then even a Honda CG125 would be better than no bike at all (I think
)
We've had loads of people join BHC rideouts on Gixers, Milles, R1's, VTR's, Vifers and kawasakis and as far as I'm concerned they're all very welcome. Mind you, we've ridden thousands of miles on BHC rideouts, most of them very safe, but of course we've had one or two inevitable spills. Strangely we've only had 1 Duke go down in the twisties compared to 3 non-Dukes. Coincidence?
Of course, anybody joining a rideout organised by a Ducati club (and therefore chock full of Dukes) on anything else has to be prepared to take a bit of banter - but what else would you expect?
Same goes for joining in on a Ducati related site.
