How much did that cost you
The Factory editions look so damn good, congrats!
Awesome looking bike! Congrats
I suck at negotiating, so I paid sticker price. $13,995. They had a deal going on though no dealer fees and got a few other things thrown in. I really wanted the factory version, so I didn’t really care.
The Shop
Luxon 4-Post Bar Mounts
$189.95 - $239.95
DeCal Works Huge Plastic Inventory of UFO and Polisport kits.
Congrats. Those things are beauties. My buddy picked up the same one, like a month ago. He really likes it. I just got a YZ and am excited to take a spin on his Ducati, to compare. But those Factory Ed Ducatis look like race bikes right off of the showroom. Very cool. You picked a sweet one to purchase, after a long time of not buying new bikes. Enjoy.
Pretty happy for you! What a great choice for first new bike in awhile, congrats! Ride reports needed soon.
Winning💪
You didn’t speak with your wallet, but congratulations on the new bike.
Guy has been here since 2008. Would think he would know what “Spoke with my wallet “ means?
Regardless beautiful looking motorcycle. 👍
Looks awesome congrats!
So what bike followed you home in 2007?
Hope she rides as good as she looks.
Looks awesome.
What is special on the Factory edition?
Will do! I won't be able to take out for a few weeks unfortunately. I have to work this weekend and get the kids the weekend after. Its going to be hard looking at it in the garage during the week. 🤣
Full Akrapovic exhaust, billet triple clamps, DLC and Kashima covered forks, titanium numbered stand, numbered flywheel cover bolt, I believe different porting and suspension settings, skid plate, few other things I am probably forgetting.
KTM 450 SXF. I was 28 then, 48 now.
It's only a true "spoke with the wallet" when its a smoker.... frickn noobies....
I know, I was just pretty excited, to my credit I did add the model to the title. 🤣 I corrected it. lol
Tomahawk is open tomorrow! Hellloooo!
Pit Row
Cut the guy some slack. He is totally stoked on getting a new bike after 20 years.
Congrats! Beautiful bike!
Price means nothing, you can't put a price on what makes you happy. I honestly can't remember what I paid for the last 10 450's that I've bought over the years. If you got what you wanted, that's all that matters.
Enjoy it 👍
Congrats! Enjoy the ride, awesome bike!
Congratulations!! She is a bad b*tch! I know this will sound silly, but I’m very curious what the titanium stand looks like, that’s totally trick! Is the edition and it tells you what number out of the total bikes or is it just a number on the bike stand?
look forward to your riding report👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Unfortunately, data centers are calling my name and I have to pay for this thing!
Exactly my thoughts! I also found out my fiance is a keeper! She was as excited as I am.
That price is amazing that's pretty much on par for the KTM Factory Editions I am impressed that Ducati can do this with I would imagine a smaller assembly line. Awesome bike enjoy👍
That does tell you a lot. My wife never knew before I pulled up with a new bike and never anything but excitement with me!!! Well…until I broke a rib…but then…wait …also until I tore my shoulder apart and out of work for 2.5 months..but th…wait…and the knee… well… nm. CONGRATS ON THE BEAUTIFUL AWESOME BIKE! Waiting for the ride report.
There's a video on Vital I watched last night that showed the assembly line for them building the Desmo 450. It was really cool, I was pretty surprised their pricing wasn't a lot more considering Ducati.
I did tell her I was considering it. She's in Los Angeles visiting her family, once I mentioned it to her and she didn't complain I went straight to the dealer. Sorry about your injuries. I've got a replaced knee, so it probably wasn't the best purchase for me. I'm blown away by the electronics these new bikes have and the Ducati app seems really cool for tuning and seeing maintenance schedules.
That’s a damn nice bike buddy. Report back once you spin some laps and let us know how it is!
All good….haven’t had my last injury…lol. But a wife that still acts excited when I bring home a new bike, more often then I probably should, despite many bikes and injuries is a keeper….and that bike sounds like it will be a blast! Maybe I shou……never mind…
