Currently riding a Ducati Monster S4R, my cafe racer of choice. Also ride a BMW R1200GS and an Aprilia Scarabeo 500 Scooter. La Dolce Vita!

The S4R is a beautiful bike, I'd love to have one some day, I am partial to the "Dark" Sounds like you have quite the nice stable started there!

Yes, I'd also like to start a Ducati (& friends) riding group that meets at a coffee house up here. Your RSV Mille would be welcome! Maybe this will be the year...

I had a Suzuki Bandit that was great but i love my Ducati 999 & double espresso to go. I've been looking at the water temperature running as high as 227 and i'm thinking somehow their's a way to get a grouphead in here...It's an italian Bike I can't be the only one with this need? ok, maybe I'll start with a cup-holder for a frenchpress...

Did you really think that it was a coincidence that a LaMarzocco portafilter is exactly the same size as a Ducati oil filter? LOL! Do your high water temps happen all the time or just when you're stuck in traffic? My moving temps usually run somewhere 156 or so. Anyhow, I remember that Ducati.com once had a contest where design contestants submitted Ducati inspired product designs. These were mainly high quality computer renderings and one of the submissions was an espresso machine. It was red (of course) and had many Ducati-esque design features to it.

Here is an unrelated machine that I kind of thought was cool. I like the fuel filler under the group!

I've been riding my '85 BMW K100RT for 9 years and love it more than any cycle I've ever ridden. I sold my KZ900 over the summer.
