Still needs to be clean and of value to the club.

I've had 5 Ducati so far, all super bikes all post 1997 models. Only break down has been a snapped throttle cable on my first 748BP, thank fully this went on the yard before I went out for a blast.

I've had 2 x 749 (S & R), both have had niggling work done under warranty, but, neither let me down at the side of the road.

OK, Ducati have quirks and I accept these as the "price" to pay for owning an Itallian Superbike.

I'd rather put up with the the odd quirk and enjoy the reaction of the public and other bikers when ever I park up.

Before I got in to Ducati's I had a very nice, very clean Kwak ZX6. No matter how much I cleaned it or cared for it, I would be only 1 of dozens of ZX6 at any bike meet.

I pull up on the 749r and there may be 1 or 2 other Ducati's.

I like that kind of exclusivity.
