Why am I a Cucciolo?

To All , Don't forget the 750 GT. It kind of spawned all the twins. It should fit between the MHR and the 750 SS. Mostly because there are so few good ones left.

agreed ,

"roundcase" or GT should in there somewhere as the 1st widely avavilable bevel drive V twin they produced

OOOPS....my bad. Absolutely the 750GT should be on the list, and I even forgot the 750Sport which is also a glaring omission....that's why they don't put me in charge of these things......

Thats why "Roundcase" is good. it covers 2 great models or ........if you add in the green frame, 3 great names.

Like I keep reassuring you folks, I am not biased at all

Rick ( 750 Gt ROUNDCASE)

As there seems to be a problem with 2 many names, & not enough categories, the names should take in a wider range of models.

e.g single.....roundcase.....darmah.......SS..........etc

..... and/or increase the categories......... which is fine by me.

I am leaning towards this....... good enough?

1+ Cucciolo
25+ Mariana
50+ Diana
75+ Mach 3
100+ parallel twin
150+ 750 GT
200+ 750 Sport
250+ 860GT/GTS
300+ SD Darmah
350+ SSD Darmah
400+ Super Sport
450+ MHR/S2
500+ Greenframe

Couple of thoughts, Steve:

1. I think many Ducatisti would place the single bevels a notch up from the Parallel Twins.

2. I think many would also place the 750 GT and Sport above the 860GT/GTS.

3. Even though the 750Sport is a non desmo model, I think many would place it ahead of the Darmahs.

4. I'm not sure the MHR/S2 merit being ahead of the Super Sports.

5. The Darmah SSD was essentially a Darmah with a different fairing produced for only two years, so I'm not sure it deserves its own category, but if does, then certainly the 750SS and 900SS should be broken out.

Now, all that being said, these are nit picks, and your list is good as any -but you did ask for comments.....

Fabio has made a decision on the ranking, which is great, but I'll have to explain to the wife why I'm now "Mariana".

Don't laugh, I'm not the only one with a funny name, eh Spub! or should that be Diana..........

Cheers

Well, I'm still trying to decide if I'm gonna go with a Diana Ross type Diana, or a Princess Di type Diana......

25 posts to go from a Cucciolo to a 500 parallel twin.....jeez.
Can I jump the queue if I put up pics of the Museum starting with their most sucessful model proudly positioned in the main entry...?
( no...not me the Darmah)
And look...no drip tray!!!
