Rode 150 miles to Tampa to go beat on their two new additions MultiStrada 1200 and the Diavel.
Had a good time, met some nice people and got 2.5 hours of ride time on their dime. Nice machines!
I will own one...one day
Did it with the Ducati Girls...

I also went to the Ducati event. I rode the Diavel and it was fun. The bike feels much lighter than it looks; it was surpising.
One thing I did not like about the Diavel was the foot peg hieght. I was dragging toes and pegs a few times. It caught me off gaurd.
The bike did feel super light and was fun to ride. I was right behind the ride leader and was about to really get on it a few times and
get the front end pulling up a bit. He was did a great job leading the group. Bike really handle well for having a 240 rear tire on it.
The clutch and gearing were spot on and a dream.
All in all a pretty awsome day with excellent weather.
Nice, I would take the ride just to look at the girls
I thought the diavel was a pretty big bike.

Sorry I missed you, I met 3 other Hayabusa owners all of which are not members. What time/day were you there?
I agree 100% on the review, it would take me quite a while to get comfortable on the Diavel, an hour really didn't give me much time on either bike to form a strong opinion. They both had great aspects. As you said the weather was perfect. I'm so over the Florida summer!
Im just happy the photographer made the ugly one where a helmet......
Glad you guys had fun. Wonder if Randy has participated in one of these events in LA

They liked the chef!
Dave the orginizer was very cool and I invited him and his father(part-time Floridian) down to the Club for lunch.
Maybe score some free Duc swag...
He use to do the same thing for NASCAR till they cut way back. He and I were talking and he said in the day, Marlboro/Penske would drop approx $1million on a weekend event. WOW.
Very well presented, the girls are local from a modeling agency and hired per/event. What really shocked me was there was wait for it.... NO local Ducati dealership representation. Not one person. The dealership was 2 miles down the road. I guess business/sales for them are really strong.??? Talk about missed opportunity.
All in all, a very good time. I recommend it to all, just go check it out.
