I "came of age" in the late 60's and early 70's, and was sauced for most of that time. Yes, the 70's were saucy. But what I really like about that article:
"....Unlike many Japanese bikes in the popular cruiser category, Ducati had no need to borrow heritage from others. ..."
and;
"...In part a result of extensive and successful racing programs, Ducatis are often considered the two-wheel equivalent of Ferraris in both intended purpose and country of origin..."
Says it all don't it. Ain't it great being a Ducati owner?
