New Duc in the fold...
I finalized the purchase of the Duc today!
'04 999, 680 miles. It was formerly a promotional bike used by Guy Pavageau, an SCCA and Speed GT driver now racing a Monte Carlo in the Busch Series North.
It's spotless. I'm ecstatic. But its time to sell a couple of bikes, I think.

You'd be astonished by the prices and how affordable they've become. No kidding.

Oh, i know. I was REALLY close to getting a 998 a couple months ago.
They are kind of hard to find, but I should be able to get one for around 7 when I find one in good shape.
it would be easier if i wanted a bike they made for more than one year, though. Ah well.

I've seen similar 999's going for 8100 at BUY ME NOW prices. It would be worth buying one and shipping it here.
