When I decided to start out as a novice racer, it was merely an idea, a dream, a desire. However, as things progress, the actual work of getting the bike race ready has basically slapped that foggy dream-like state into full reality.

Vixens, as riders we tend to start out at a disadvantage, but being female riders I think shows we have “balls” and we definitely do get major credit for that. I believe it takes a certain type of woman to ride, she has to be confident, outgoing and let’s face it the majority of us […]

I met Nels this summer at his shop in Woodinville, WA during a maintenance event that included suspension setups with Fluid Suspension Science (FS2) in addition to Nels performing Dynos on your bikes. Nels stated that with the upgraded Termignoni exhausts I had, the only way to get the maximum performance out of my bike […]
There is an easy way to winterize your bike (my favorite way), take it to your dealership or if you don’t know where to take it you can call Ducati Bellevue (425-882-4300) and get an estimate on what it would cost to winterize your bike and have them do it for you! However, if you […]
