    Don't under estimate the Duc's go power.
    Do over estimate your ability to play "Walter Mitty goes to Isle of Man".
    Taking care of a friends bike is a trust, and it should be given back in the same or better condition than it was recieved.
    And has been noted, I-tallion bike parts are expensive.
    Let us know your evaluation of the bike.

    Have fun, carefully, CZ
    i wouldn't ever abuse anybodys bike. i dont abuse my own, he will be getting it back in better shape than it was when i got it. it is a pretty clean bike. there a few small things that the po did that i plan on undoing. there is some wiring that needs cleaned up with the correct connectors. the battery hold down needs replaced with the correct type. the tach mount is super loose. i think the left hand control is off a different bike.

      If I had the bucks, I'd find an early 80's Ducati Dharma and restore it to like new or better condition. These bikes are like a french woman, beautiful but high maintenance...
