As someone who has been working on ducks for years and has torn into most of the motors they have produced in the past ten years, I can say without a doubt you are talking from your ass.

Had you mentioned the rocker arm debacle (for which there are in fact solutions) or maybe the less common squish clearance issue I might apply some weight to your posts.

Instead you write of wheelies and say the dry clutches don't last which leads me to believe (and this is confirmed by your own posts) that you are simply a sales-troll who has never turned a wrench on any bike, let alone a Ducati.

For whatever reason, most likely because you can't afford or justify the cost of a Duck (it's hard for just about everyone, but then most of us don't go around making shit up to feel better either) you slam them any chance you get based on zero first hand experience.

Yet another reason I never ever, ever listen to a damn thing car and bike sales people say.

Wow; Guys the whole point of bringing this thread back was to see how you thought your car fared quality-wise to your bike.
Had I known it was going to turn into a pissing match I would have let it rest in peace. How about knocking off the and answer the question. Here is a second question to go with the first. Are you as hard on your car as your on your bike?
