Motorcycles > 2018 Ducati Supersport S

And now for something new. It's my first Ducati! The Supersport is tuned for the street with plenty of usable torque. The 937cc engine has a bulletproof reputation and should last a lifetime. The overall quality of build and components is very high; I love everything about the Supersport except the vibrating mirrors (and for that I've found a fix). I won't be modifying the Supersport as extensively as the other bikes, as the S model comes from the factory with a high-quality suspension. The bike is lightweight with excellent handling. The seat is the most comfortable stock seat I've ever experienced, and I see no need to replace it. The Supersport might just be my favorite bike ever.

Sato Racing Handlebar Ends (Black, Long); Inserts and Weights (BE-2L-B). These longer bar ends do a good job of reducing vibrations. The longer bar ends also work as frame sliders to keep the bike off the ground if the bike is tipped over.

Touring screen shown in photo below,, characterized by its light tint, somewhat different shape, and slightly increased height. In the up position (shown), it effectively pushes the wind higher (just below my helmet) for winter riding and rain. Rhinomoto bar ends shown have been replaced by Sato Racing.
