The Oregonian, a paper not really known for making moto news, has posted an interesting interview with Michael Lock (goofy but free registration required), in which the Ducati North American CEO lays down the law on recent sales numbers.
“We have doubled in sales,” Lock said. “We’ll sell 10,000 bikes in the U.S. this year. It […]

Well, it was bound to happen now wasn’t it? A Ducati Desmosedici 16RR has finally appeared on eBay, listed for a meager $80,000 USD or fifteen thousand over the original MSRP. One can only imagine how many RR’s will be listed a year from now (and how few miles they’ll have on them)… via The […]
