  1. Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. My name is Brent, 33 and an avid ducati guy. Been on ducati.ms for years and just found this one recently. I am from Wahoo,nebraska. Pretty much in the center of the U.S. Ive had 2 ducati's. Both 996r's. Bought the first one at 24 and sold it shortly after. Bought another one back in 2011. Both were showroom bikes (never ridden sadly), first one had 8 miles on it and the second one had 2 miles on it. The second one has been a 5 year transformation. Every RS part I could get my hands on has been installed. I fell in love with these bikes while watching WSBK, Bostrom and Bayliss. Since then, I always wanted a street "998RS" Its about as close as Ill get, without buying an actuall RS...or going bankrupt!

    Anyways, Just wanted to say hello, share a few pick and say Im looking forward to contributing to this great site. Ill post an update/build thread over the next few days in the 998 section.

    Thanks again
    Brent
