Yes.

It requires a bit more focus but they are divine. The bike feels a 100 pounds lighter.

I thought for sure that I had posted in this thread but... I thought wrong. I won't go into all the bikes I have had, I'll just show the three in our garage now.
The first is my 1998 Ducati 900 Supersport Final Edition which I converted to two up from a solo.
Next is the wife and her M796 with all it's upgrades. (Long story about how she got this bike from the then CEO of Ducati.)
The last photo is me and my MV Agusta F3 675.
The last two shots where taken in Murphy NC a few years ago now.

You have good taste, sir! Your wife's Monster is very pretty.

My 1998 Monster 750. Such a fun bike, haven’t ridden since kids came around sadly. I do miss my monster from time to time.

That is a copy of the exact bike that was on display at the Ducati booth at the 2010 Indy MotoGP. Like I said it's a long, interesting story...

This is the wife's 2nd Monster. Her first was a 2001 M600 Metallic. (Fiesta red metallic tank & carbon fibre) It was #51 of 50 built for North America and the only one in Canada. Another long story...

I got time for long stories! I was at Indy in 2010... Sat in the T1 grandstand when Pete Lenz was killed. Rough day.

Nice bikes, loving the green/red colour scheme.

The tricolor editions are always stunning.

East TN and Western NC have many great roads. I'm a 10k so playing with it like a 4 year old.

Well not to the edge but... as good as I can get it on the street.

That's the IoM '78 Ducati Performance body kit that was designed to commemorate Mike Hailwood's triumphant return to the Island of Man in 1978.

Yes there are. The wife and I have ridden many of them. We try to get down for USDesmo's "Ducks Fly South" Ducati rally each September. The last few years we've had to skip though.
