Got my Ducati Monster 796 back last Saturday from the shop after they took my 115dB exhaust off and put the stock ones on. Much better to ride now.

Damn right motorcycle parking only


Also decided to order some new gloves as I’ve decided gauntlets are really great for protecting wrists and such. Sean MacDonald’s review convinced me to get these!

Motorcycle parking next to cart return? A tragedy waiting to happen.

Nah. It’s still plenty fast, and actually starts within a second rather than me holding the starter down for 7, since the old exhaust made it run either too rich/lean

That’s odd, must be running stock ECU programming. I have an SC Project on my RSV4, it is obnoxiously loud, but also requires that you update the ECU or else it will run worse.

I love my RS TaiChi shorties, gauntlets were pretty good too. I’ve been looking at the Scorpion gauntlets recently that have the Knox protection. Good bang for the buck.

Update on the gloves! Still haven’t got them. USPS f’d up the delivery and now they’re lost...

I’d actually prefer UPS, not USPS (united states postal service). Have more issues with USPS than any other carrier sadly. Will probably do a chargeback to Racer Gloves, then order again stating “NO USPS” lol.

Got the gloves today! They’re super comfortable and look like they will protect my hands really well!
