There was finally some almost decent light this evening so my bike got it's first photo shoot. This is the first one off the presses.
There had been a really nice sunset and I was going to go out and shoot in an industrial area, but then some clouds moved in and ruined my light so I just shot in my parking lot. I could probably 'shop them into something a little better, but everything here is raw.

If I had a dollar for every time someone asked what was wrong with it I would have like 7 dollars.

Sorry, what's the advantage of dry over wet? Does it cut down on oil changes or something?

The hope is that theres less drag on the clutch from the oil so more horsepower gets transferred to the wheels, but its mean the clutch grabs harder and is "harder" to slip out. I havent had too many problems with it, but its definitely different. And it sounds fantastic.

I managed to pick out the best of the rest. The light isnt the best, but they're not bad.

Nice bike! It really does look awesome. There is a kid at my school who owns a 1199 Panigale and the clutch makes an awesome noise! These Ducatis really make me want to pick up bike riding. So sexy, and super fast!

My first experience on a bike with a dry clutch was a friend's BMW R1200 GSA which sounds nothing like a Ducati so the first time I heard a Duc's dry clutch I was like, "Is it supposed to sound like that...?"
The BMW R bike has the clutch buried in the guts of the engine/transmission unit while the Ducati has it in a conventional location so it's out where you can hear it.
