i might take you up on that if i cant find a decent 16" rear- im sorta hoping that in a year something will magically appear that fits - maybe sooner as im starting to use the sport more and more. i put 200 miles on it this week alone--- and summer has just begun.

guy in berkeley is parting a 900ss -> need anything? we could go take his whole bike apart for him. i dropped him an email about his rear wheel- if i can get a deal now i figure its worth having just in case. looks like the front is a loss as it was a front end accident.

Three years ago I've asked to Ducati Italy about alternatives tyres,
but they answer me that this was a my problem !!!

So I check better for some time and finally I find the original tyres (Michelin)
So, is very difficult in Italy to change this tyres.

If we can do something with Michelin is a very good news !!!

Hey Jetboy,
Before you go and make him an offer, you should make me an offer. I have all the parts in the garage and have no use for them. The wheel is a black 5.5" wheel. I have several sprockets to choose from, and I have the 750 sprocket carrier that you will need, and rotor too. I have search to see if I have the caliper carrier. Call me. I'll even help you install it.

Cheer, Phil
