Yes, I test rode one and liked it quite a lot. But I wish Ducati had gone one way or the other with it. Either make it a lot lighter so it's more of an SS or make it faster and more of a sport-tourer mile-muncher. It's actually very much like the Interceptor I mentioned earlier as far as ergos and power. It's a lot more money though of course. Most of the guys in my local Ducati club are buying either Monsters or Panigales. One guy did buy an SS. You may be right about it being doomed to extinction though. It looks like a Panigale but doesn't have the power or cache of a Panigale. So when guys look at it, they say "might as well buy the Panigale."

The DanMoto is an inexpensive slip on. And, yes, it's pretty much a straight pipe. Which Leo Vince model are you considering? -Bob On Mon, Jan 20, 2020, 18:49 James Calandro <capod2t@gmail.com> wrote: > Bob > > I have not even ridden the bike with the DanMoto system to see how it > feels.
